Does anyone have experience with http://www.aim72.co.uk ? I'm
considering buying their 737-300 + -400 conversion set
(http://www.aim72.co.uk/TW05-002.htm and
http://www.aim72.co.uk/TWC-008.htm), but I'm wondering about the kit -
is it a full kit? For a 1:72 scale 747, 67 parts seems a bit few.

It is indeed a full kit (I've got one unbuilt in the garage, along with
the SCA conversion kit). The kits are molded of a fairly think black
plastic (.040 - .060?).

Don't expect a cockpit, positionable flaps, detailed landing gear bays,
or even much surface detail. Other than that, these are fairly
accurate representations of big 'ol airplanes.

P.S. I just occured to me that I purchased this kit at Hannant's
Colindale location before my daughter was born. She's now six years
old. Does that mean that I have too many unbuilt kits?

A friend gave me one a few years ago. It is by far the biggest kit in
my collection. I don't even have a box big enough to store it, so I
guess I'll have to build it. :-)
