Slingsby Type 31 Planned

Rush Models is planning to release the Slingsby Type 31 trainer glider in 1:48 scale


Hi friends 

I apologize for my extended silence, but I'm back with inspiring news! 

I'm delighted to introduce our new model of the Slingsby Type 31 Tandem Tutor in 48th scale. 

This British military training glider, designed and built by Slingsby, was extensively used by the Air Training Corps between 1951 and 1986. 

The ATC, a division of the Royal Air Force Air Cadets (RAFAC), is proudly sponsored by both the Royal Air Force (RAF) and the wider Ministry of Defence.

The model will include:

  • Plastic sprues
  • Photo-etched parts
  • 3D printed details 
  • Silkscreen decals

Decals will offer options for recreating one of the following schemes: 

  • Air Cadets (Red + White color scheme)
  • Air Cadets (Metallic + Yellow color scheme)
  • Possibly one or two private liveries

Stay with us to see the assembly process in our posts and be the first to find out about the release of this model.
