Welcome to the latest edition of our weekly Workbench blog, and all the news, updates, and modelling exclusives from the fascinating world of Airfix.
Our subject area for this latest edition of the Airfix blog sees us venturing into the fascinating world of post war rotary aviation, but more specifically, our model tributes to some of the most significant examples of these aircraft to ever see British service during that time. Taking our 1/48th scale modelling tributes as our focus, the lead subject is the latest release addition to this impressive range, one of the most agile helicopters to have ever taken to the skies, the incredible Westland Lynx AH-7.
In addition to looking at the history of the Lynx and the THREE scheme options available with this latest kit release, we will also be taking this opportunity to feature some of its 1/48th scale rotary brothers in arms, kits which are also currently available on the Airfix website, kits which really do have to be considered as some of the most impressive modelling projects to have ever worn the Airfix badge.
There isn’t a fixed wing aircraft in sight as we head into ‘Rotary Weekend’, with the incredible Westland Lynx at its vanguard.
