Airfix - Avro Anson Mk.I - 1:48
Product Code: A09191
As one of the most important aircraft during
inter-war years and WWII, the Avro Anson became the first monoplane
type to achieve squadron service status in 1936. It was also the
first RAF aircraft featuring a retractable undercarriage. The final
RAF example was only withdrawn from service as a station
communications aircraft in 1968, despite entering the Second World
War with 26 squadrons equipped with Avro Ansons.
