Civilian aircraft offer a rich diversity of forms and functions, and our kits reflect that. Built to high standards, these model aircraft kits showcase everything from finely detailed fuselage panels and realistic undercarriages to period-correct decals. It doesn’t matter if you’re building for display or creating a scene in a diorama, these kits deliver remarkable realism and quality.
In our range of civilian aircraft model kits, you can find:
Trainer aircraft are the unsung heroes of aviation, teaching countless pilots the basics of flight. The Zlin Z-42M is a perfect example of this. Originally developed in Czechoslovakia, this single-engine, two-seat aircraft has served as a workhorse for flight schools since its first flight in 1967. Its versatility allowed for basic and intermediate training, aerobatics, and even glider towing.
Our 1:72 scale Zlin Z-42M kit features a clear canopy, fuselage and wing parts, and a simple 13-piece assembly - ideal for builders who appreciate minimalist design with functional accuracy. It’s a great entry point into civilian aircraft modelling, especially for fans of general aviation.
For speed, colour, and spectacle, few things compare to air racing. These sleek and powerful aircraft push the limits of engineering and design. A great example is the Supermarine Spitfire MkXIV, a warbird reborn as a civilian air racer. Known for its aggressive lines and sheer performance, this aircraft adds a legacy of combat and speed to any model shelf.
The 1:48 civilian Supermarine Spitfire kit comes with 118 parts, multiple scheme options, and sprues with detailed decals. It captures the Spitfire’s post-war role in thrilling civilian aviation competitions, making it an excellent choice for anyone wanting to recreate the golden age of air racing.
Airshows offer a dramatic showcase for aerobatic skill, engine power, and the personality of vintage aircraft. One standout is the C18S “Magic by Moonlight,” based on the classic Beechcraft Model 18. Originally built as a light passenger plane, this twin-engine marvel found new life in the hands of civilian pilots who turned it into an aerial performer.
The 1:48 C18S scale kit features plastic frames, decals, and easy-to-follow instructions. It’s a stylish and historically rich model that makes a dynamic addition to any civilian aircraft collection, especially for modellers drawn to showmanship and vintage charm.
It’s hard to imagine a civilian model aircraft kit collection without airline model kits, and in this group, few aircraft are as iconic as the Boeing 747 and Airbus A380. These commercial aeroplane models capture the grandeur of long-haul aviation and offer a rewarding build for anyone passionate about air travel.
Take the Airbus A380-800 British Airways edition - this 1:144 scale kit features over 160 parts, including detailed undercarriage, engine pylons, and an accurate cockpit. Likewise, the Boeing 747-200 Jumbo Jet is a tribute to one of the most recognisable silhouettes in aviation history. With decal sets representing KLM aircraft from the late ’80s, this model evokes a golden era of international airliners.
These airline model kits are perfect for hobbyists who want to recreate the global airliners that have shaped modern travel.
If airline model kits appeal to you because of sheer scale and engineering grandeur, cargo aircraft could also be something you are interested in, as they offer some of the most impressive builds. The Antonov An-225 Mriya, the world’s largest aircraft, is a standout among commercial aircraft models.
This Antonov An-225 Mriya kit, built to 1:144 scale, includes 227 parts and options for cockpit layout, nose ramp position, cargo hold detail, and more. With over two dozen wheels and a wingspan of over 600 mm, it’s an ambitious but deeply rewarding project. The included decals let you choose between two authentic liveries used during the An-225’s operational life.
Commercial aeroplane models like the An-225 are ideal for enthusiasts who admire the engineering feats behind global cargo transport.
