1/144 scale - Airfix Vostok 1 - One of the most successful space designs ever, the initial flight of the Vostok which carried the first human being into space was launched on April 12, 1961, Vostok 1, carrying cosmonaut Yury A. Gagarin, made a single orbit of Earth before reentry. The Vostok series included six launchings over a two-year period (1961–63). The final two missions in June 1963 by Vostok 5, followed two days later by Vostok 6, carrying Valentina V. Tereshkova, the first woman in space, were notable in that the two spacecraft travelled at times only 3 miles (4.8 km) apart, setting the stage for future space dockings between orbiting vehicles.

1/24 scale - Airfix Junkers Ju-87 Stuka - was the most famous of all planes used by the Germans as a sturzkamfflugzeug (dive bomber). It is instantly recognisable with its inverted gull-wings, and fixed-undercarriage. The Ju 87 was ugly, sturdy, accurate, but very vulnerable to enemy fighters. Its accuracy was high when in a full dive that was up to 80 degrees. Once the bomb was released it used an automatic pull-up system to ensure that the plane pulled out of the dive even if the pilot blacked out from the high G forces

1/32 scale - Airfix 1804 Steam Engine - Richard Trevithick was a young engineer but was responsible for one of the most important of all inventions - the first steam locomotive. In 1795, when he was only 25 years old, Trevithick was building working models of high-pressure steam engines. Cornish tin and Welsh coal miners used his early engines to power carts from 1800, and, in 1804 his first steam locomotive, the Penydarren, was unveiled and ran at the heart-stopping speed of 5 m.p.h. The most revolutionary feature of Trevithick's 1804 locomotive was the fact that it had smooth wheels operating on smooth metal rails. Until Trevithick's achievement, engineers has said it was impossible to run an engine on non-geared track, but he had proved them wrong and the golden era of the steam locomotive had begun.

1/48 scale - Airfix TSR-2 - The BAC TSR-2 was an ill-fated cold war strike aircraft developed by the British Aircraft Corporation (BAC) for the RAF in the early 1960s. The TSR-2 was designed to penetrate a well-defended forward battle area at low altitudes and very high speeds and then attack high-value targets in the rear with close-in bomb runs and precision drops. The TSR-2 included a number of advanced features that made it the highest performing aircraft in this role yet the programme was controversially cancelled in favour of the General Dynamics F-111 a procurement that itself was later cancelled.
