Airfix Catalogue description:The largest turbo-electric passenger liner ever built in Britain has been described as "The ship that shapes the future". This description could also well apply to this new Construction kit by Airfix which produces a fully detailed 16 1/2 inch model of this modern passenger liner. When the eighty-six parts of this kit have been carefully assembled and painted you will have a model you can be proud of because it really will look "just like the real thing". - Taken from the 1st edition catalogue (1962)
