Corgi
Model Airplanes for Aviation Enthusiasts
For those captivated by the history and artistry of flight, few pursuits are as satisfying as collecting model aircraft. For generations, the CORGI Aviation Archive has celebrated aviation heritage through exquisitely detailed die-cast replicas. Part of the Hornby Hobbies family, Corgi recreates some of the world’s most significant aircraft in ready-made, pre-painted form. Each model reflects a dedication to precision and storytelling that connects collectors with moments of aviation history. Highlights include the Eurofighter Typhoon FGR4 – nicknamed Moggy – a 1:48 scale model complete with crew figures and display stand, and the Supermarine Spitfire MkI flown by war hero Douglas Bader, rendered at 1:72 scale with its distinctive black, white and silver underside.
In an increasingly digital age, these tangible pieces of craftsmanship offer a nostalgic yet enduring link to the past. www.corgi.co.uk
