Review: Satisfying - You know what you get with Airfix Vintage range and in this case a kit with a mould dating back to 1966. So yes, you might require a sanding pad, craft knife, filler and some clamps, and experienced modellers will have these things. But it is a hugely satisfying little project to do. It comes with tiny Swordfish and Fairey Fulmar planes which add interest to the deck and with the use of primer paints up really well.
Review: Perfect gift - Great item happy with it
