Hi everyone I've managed to complete this little 1/72 Airfix islander. It came as a job lot from a "friend" lol who promised everything was in good order inside. From the 15 I acquired from him 6 have been scraped due to missing parts like fuselages! All of the 9 remaining kits are in similar condition to this one. So never trust your mates and always look in the box when buying secondhand kits lol.
Anyways I set the fairy power spray into action and with ease it removed the enamel paint.[ATTACH]112656.IPB[/ATTACH]
Having got the kit back to its original condition and after a bit of simple construction and some paint and decals here's the result. For a kit tooled in 1971 it went together nicely with no gaps or badly fitting parts so thanks for looking and any comments that you leave cheers John
