Rando Just finished this model. Yes, it's terrible in fit and detail, but I didn't take it too seriously and just used it as an opportunity to practice. It was the first kit I had built since I was a kid and it turned out pretty nice! Had a lot of fun getting the decals on especially.

David Thor This is one of the worst model kits i ever bought. It's actually a shame that it's still sold.
Gordon Sørensen I haven't seen the new boxings for Airfix's ' Vintage Series' yet, but this kit definately qualifies...

Cuajete I have the unfinished model. A lot of scratch and putty. But I think the worst is the cockpit. Canopy not have uprights.
It is best to run away from this kit and purchase the one from KP or SBS.

P J Good to see the Grosvenor House plane back on the shelves but this kit desperately needs a new tool. Takes a lot of filler and patience to make a good looking model. Old Frog/Novo versions a better bet for a decent build.

Gordon Sørensen Nice to see the real one has flown again. I totally agree about the quality of the kit, very basic, lots of flash, but a beautiful aircraft!

P J Absolutely! I'm sorry I missed it fly yesterday but I'll see it soon.
I'd like to hunt down one of those Aerotech 1:32 models of the DH.88.
