Subject: Beagle 206 Bassett

Manufacturer: Airfix

Constructed in 1975

The kit of this RAF communications aircraft was released in 1968 and was one of Airfix's more unusual offerings. I don't suppose that the Bassett will ever be kitted again. The riveting was quite restrained for 60's Airfix - small aircraft, small rivets, right?! The fit of the parts was good.
