The Official Gerry Anderson Store is excited to bring you a range of officially licensed Thunderbird model kits by manufacturer AIP. Here we have Fireflash.
Operated by ‘Air Terrainean’ the Fireflash is a hypersonic airliner powered by six atomic motors that enable the aircraft to stay airborne for up to six months. Its maximum speed is Mach 6, approximately 4,500 mph, and is capable of flying at a height of 250,000 feet. It is equipped with two passenger decks and many luxury features including cocktail lounges located within glazed sections of the wings’ leading edges. Unusually the flight deck is built into the aircraft’s tail fin. Fireflash featured in 6 episodes of Thunderbirds but will probably be best remembered for its appearance in “Trapped In The Sky”, the episode that introduced International Rescue to the world.

United KingdomI always wanted a model of Fireflash. Now I have one. This is a very detailed kit with excellent instructions and decals together with a painting guide. There is the option to display Fireflash in flight as a stand is included. The modeller also has the choice of undercarriage down. The best is yet to come, as you have to the opportunity to recreate "Trapped in the Sky" as the kit provides four elevator cars as used by International Rescue to enable Fireflash to land. It can all be displayed on a sheet of cardboard marked as a section of runway. Looking forward to building this.
