Hi all

I was looking through the campaigns to see what I might be able to fit in. For the most part support aircraft are not my thing, but it got me thinking and I do like the Ju-52. Did a little looking and there doesn't seem to be the many made. I like Airfix new kits, is their Ju-52 new or one of their old kits?

Other than Airfix does anyone make a Ju-52 kit which good beginner/low intermediate modeller could do?

thanks

Good morning Mr. Aaron
The best Ju-52 Kit is simply the 1/48 Revell (ex. Monogram) one

BEST IN ANY SCALE - Revell 1/48 JU-52. The tooling is incredible, overall good fit and superb details. They also go for peanuts second hand for what is in the box.

Despite being about 10 years old, it still puts may 'new tool' kits to shame in terms of the toolmakers art. A simply fabulous all round kit and needing no aftermarket at all.
