Sorry Vintage, I think Flair have gone. Sussex Model Centre lists a few of their models, including the SE5A which is listed as "limited stock".

Nooocrying but their website is active.....i hope their start again .....please contact them

If Flair can only get their act together, with the resurgence of 'real building' and the pedigree of their classic kits, people will be beating a path to their door (or website) .DB models seem to be doing OK, so why not Flair again?

Did anyone get the Models from Flair? I'd like to get a Pup but everyone is still "Out of Stock".

What about the optional extras (Pilot, Wheels, Gun, Decals, Dummy Engine) are they still available?

Finally, does anyone know why Flair recommend the W30750 Vickers machine gun (1/4 scale) for the Pup rather than the W30160 (1/6 scale)?

Just returned to RC after a couple of years away. I have just ordered a Flair Puppeteer from High Peak Models, ordered model yesterday they phoned me last night to explain the 8 week wait. I was informed that Flair has changed hands a few times in recent years, moved to China and now back in England. It says on High Peak Models website "Flair Kits are a bespoke ordered product and as such have an 8-12 week waiting time at point of order". The kit I have ordered will come direct from Flair who are now in Warwick and includes a certificate to prove it is one of theirs. I was told that Flair are in the process of coming back into full production of their kits. If you are prepared to wait a few weeks for a kit High Peak Models can be contacted on 01663751450 or check their website.
