Does anyone know what might be suitable?

What *sort* of 'model plane' are you talking about here? If it's yer
'Airfix' type plastic model here as if so I use "Revell Contacta
Professional" because it works and comes in a very handy dispenser
that doesn't block if you keep using it regularly and leave the fine
nozzle clean if you don't.

Damn you! What was the brand of adhesive we used to use in the 1960s for Airfix (and other) models?

I remember lots of glues - gripfix, croydex, copydex - but cannot recall the small solvent weld adhesive tubes!

Britfix?
