Description
The Spitfire of Supermarine was one of the most built aircraft
in the world. Its high speed, reliability and above all its enormous
manoeuvrability made it the most popular fighter aircraft of all time.
During the “Battle of Britain”, the air battle for England, their
deployment ensured the glorious victory of the British Air Force. It is
no wonder that another legend has set a musical monument to this legend
of heaven: The heavy metal band Iron Maiden with their super hit “Aces
High” on their album “Powerslave” from 1984. The model kit Spitfire
Mk.II “Aces High” Iron Maiden therefore belongs to the category Top
Gifts for Dad!
Spitfire and Iron Maiden – the legends live
Today there are still about 40 of the legendary Spitfire in
airworthy condition worldwide. Plus one that still floats above the
heads of the six heavy metal musicians at the concerts of Iron Maiden
as a full-size model.
In principle, a song should not be missing when the guitars
imitate the full hum of the airplane’s engine: “Aces
High”, the anthem for the daring flight of the Battle of
England.
At the latest then Daddy’s fingers automatically form the sign
of all hard rockers, the “Devils Horn”, his eyes get a bit wet, and
from full throat he sings along the line that accompanied him part of
his way: “Live to fly! Fly to live! Aces high …”
This is the best opportunity for anyone who is still looking
for a gift for dad of a very special kind
– a model kit for hours of fun.
