AIRFIX TEST SHOTS AT

A2ZEE MODELS
NEW RELEASES
A
irfix surprised visitors to ScaleModelworld
2012 at Telford with test shots and even a
built sample of a forthcoming 1:48 scale
Spitfire PR.XIX. Detail looked excellent,
and panel lines appear much finer than the latest
Airfix releases. In fact, the exterior surface detail
was much more reminiscent of the benchmark
Spitfire 22/24 from the 1990s than the
somewhat chunkier Spitfire XII.
A
2Zee Models has a number of new
releases including the first WWI kit by
Alley Cat, a 1:32 scale Bristol M1.C.
This resin kit has decals for seven
aircraft – three operational and four trainers.
Also released recently is a 1:32 scale Gloster
Gamecock
This kit contains 148 high quality resin parts
plus 6 clear resin parts, and decals two aircraft.
Other new releases inlcude a 1:48 scale de
Havilland Sea Vixen FAW.1 (Royal Navy Test
Squadron) full resin conversion for the Airfix
FAW.2 kit, including new resin booms, canopy
parts, masks and decals for XJ488
A2Zee Models has launched a new
brand, Rotor Craft, specialising in helicopter
accessories. The initial batch of releases are
a 1:48 scale Gulf War “Killer” Lynx HAS.3
designed for the Airfix kit with weapons and
decals for two aircraft; a Wessex HAR.2

tail rotor also for the Italeri 1:48 scale kit.

Also on the Airfix stand were test shot sprues,
an unpainted build-up and a complete and painted
example of their forthcoming 1:48 scale Agusta
Westland Merlin helicopter at ScaleModelworld
2012. The Merlin is an all weather multi-role
helicopter that can be used in both strategic
and operational roles. It is currently serving in
Afghanistan where it is proving to be a valuable
asset carrying a wide range of cargo, from general
stores inside its fuselage to larger under slung loads
such as Land Rovers and artillery pieces. This kit will
be available in 2013.

AeroDetail series
Making a scale model?
Finding the detail needed to fi nish

practical. Our range of detail photo
collections provides extensive close
ups of a wide range of popular
aircraft all on CD in J-peg format

ing WW2 and close reconnaissance and spotter aircraft
and for many other tasks. (80 images)
Monocoupe CD108
The Monocoupes were side-by-side two-seat light-
planes of mixed wood and steel-tube basic construction
with fabric covering. A braced high-wing monoplane with
fi xed tailskid landing gear, and the reverse curve rear
fuselage lines that were to become one of the signature
identifi er features of the Monocoupes. 55 photos
