Thoughtout the year, IPMS Brampton offers Make and Paint sessions at Airshows and Events, in schools and with various other Youth Organisations. These are all supported by Airfix, who supply the plastic kits, paint and glue.
Our main efforts are providing sessions at the Shuttleworth Collections Airshow Days, between May and October each year.
Our event attract a wide and diverse audience. Ages from 3 to 103 have enjoyed the experience of building a model.
If you’d like to join us at our next Make and Paint event, see our ‘What’s On‘ page to find our next session.
In November 2016, co-organised with the Shuttleworth Collection, IPMS Brampton achieved the Guinness World Record, for Most People Constructing Aircraft Models. In order to count for the record all models must be completed within 2 hours however, all participates had to be sat making the same kit for a minimum of 30 minutes. In the end, 369 people successfully completed the same kit with the 2 hour period, smashing the previous record by over 100 people.
