About Me!

Hey there! My name’s Sergi, I’m 17 years old and still in high school here in Sherwood Park, Alberta. My dream is to pursue a career in aviation, a passion I’ve had for as long as I can remember.

Ever since I was little, I’ve been absolutely obsessed with planes. I’ve traveled across much of Europe, always staring out the airport windows, watching aircraft take off and land for hours. That fascination quickly turned into collecting model airplanes, something that brought me a lot of joy growing up.

But there was one problem...  most models were way too expensive. As a kid, I didn’t have much money to spend, and it always made me wish there was a way to make collecting more affordable for people like me.

That’s what inspired me to start my own store. I began connecting with aviation suppliers to find ways to bring high-quality models to Canada at better prices. At first, I sold on platforms like Marketplace and in person settings, it was fun but inconsistent, and eventually, I got banned for being underage. Still, that experience helped me build and connect with a passionate community of pilots, parents, collectors and aviation fans, this is what ended up pushing me to take the next step: launching my own website.

Starting this store has been a dream come true. My goal is simple. to give Canadians access to the same quality and value I always wished for. Every order means a lot to me, and I do my best to make sure you’re happy with what you get.

Thank you for supporting my small business and being part of my aviation journey. I hope my store helps more collectors (young and old!) enjoy this amazing hobby without breaking the bank.
