Airfix kits. Are they good kits worth building?

[Pantherman]

My RAF Flight Sargent father introduced Airfix kits to me in 1956. Yes they were crude in the start but are a stable start to any prospective modeller today, and I still build them although I am 77 on Monday coming!

Many happy returns for Monday. Pantherman

I must be getting old. When I was a kid Airfix was pretty much synonymous with plastic model kit, and I grew up in Norway. Despite living in a country which was almost like an east block country apart from no shortage of toilet paper and with well stocked grocery stores, we had access to plenty of different brands. Airfix had a special place though, and every kid knew when you said Airfix you were talking plastic models
