I'd support a few in 1/72. I was really impressed by the new tool HAR3 and cashed in 24 tokens for the commando version. With folded rotors they take up much less shelf space than most aircraft.

If it's her model and that's what she wants that's all that matters. I'll happily sacrifice true accuracy to do the model i want too. I started doing kits at 7 year old and your daughter puts my childhood models to shame!

For the scale that's amazing! Logs are really for muddy terrain. For post d day how about a Cullen cutter? Pretty easy to scratch with 1mm plasticard.

Sure, but it can only build as A-4B, C, P or Q; There's no chance of getting, say, an A-4E/F from it (different forward fuselage and intakes). Not a bad point. I've got some bullpups in my stash which are wrong for the current model. John McCain s aircraft would be a good decal option. Airfix are great at British subjects no one else does. I'd love a 1/72 Beaufort. New tool Canberra and Vulcan would fit the range perfectly. New tool meteor (early and late night fighter) and gloster javelin could be good too. I really date the new tool sea kings. How about a Chinook?

Airfix's strength is that it does classic British aircraft other makers don't or wont. As far as I'm concerned the obvious new kits are what you see in any British air museum. Canberra Sea venomvenom Single seat vampire Hunter Meteor My absolute favourite the sea vixen. Also what about some classic helicopters like the wessex?
