Aerocar

Thumbnail
Taylor recognized that the detachable wings of Fulton’s design would be better replaced by folding wings. His prototype Aerocar utilized folding wings that allowed the road vehicle to be convertible into flight mode in five minutes by one person. Yahoo-5 2/11/2012

Aeronca-C3

Thumbnail
The Aeronca C-3s, nicknamed the "Flying bathtub", were manufactured from 1931 to 1937. With room for two adults the C-3 proved itself as being a low cost reliable airplane. This Aeronca C-3 was originally owned and flown by the Hughes Flying Service.

Beech-Staggerwing

Thumbnail
Very few pre-war biplanes had enclosed cabins and fewer still had a retractable undercarriage; the four-seater Beech-17 'Staggerwing' had both. It was something of a misnomer as many biplanes had upper and lower wings staggered but the Beech reversed the usual layout by staggering the upper pair behind the lower.

Bellanca Citabria

Thumbnail
In 1964 Bellanca introduced the acrobatic version of the Champ which they dubbed Citabria, which, no doubt you have heard, is "airbatic" spelled backwards. Fitted with either a 150 or 108 horse powered Lycoming, this machine was the first aircraft certified in the US for aerobatic flight.

Bowers Fly Baby

Thumbnail
Over 500 Fly Babies have been completed to date, with scores still flying worldwide and an active network of builders and owners. It is built from plans, and was designed to be able to be constructed in a garage using only basic tools by a person of average skill. This is another model by our Belgium designing pal, Guido Van Roy. His Fly Baby is easy to build just like the real one. Adorable. Comes in SEVEN different versions and now includes the Biplane type.

DeHavilland Beaver

Thumbnail
The de Havilland Canada DHC-2 Beaver is one of the most famous bushplanes in the world. With its high-lift wing, short takeoff and landing (STOL) capability and rugged metal fuselage, the Beaver was tailor-made for bush flying; it's able to take off and land from just about anywhere while carrying heavy loads.

DeHavilland DH.89 Dragon Rapide

Thumbnail
The de Havilland DH.89 Dragon Rapide was a British short-haul passenger airliner of the 1930s. Designed by the de Havilland company in late 1933 as a faster and more comfortable successor to the DH.84 Dragon, it was in effect a twin-engined, scaled-down version of the four-engined DH.86 Express. It shared many common features with the larger aircraft including its tapered wings, streamlined fairings and the Gipsy Six engine, but it demonstrated none of the operational vices of the larger aircraft and went on to become perhaps the most successful British-built commercial passenger aircraft of the 1930s. MODEL NOT YET AVAILABLE.

Ercoupe

Thumbnail
The ERCO Ercoupe is a low wing monoplane first manufactured by the Engineering and Research Corporation (ERCO) shortly before World War II, production continued after WWII by several other manufacturers until 1967. It was designed to be the safest fixed-wing aircraft that aerospace engineering could provide at the time, and the type still enjoys a very faithful following today.

Goodyear Inflatoplane

Thumbnail
As well as their famous blimps, the Goodyear Company built military aircraft under licence, such as versions of the Vought Corsair. Of course, what they really wanted to do was build rubber aeroplanes and they got their chance in the 1950s. The US Army was particularly open to new ideas and sponsored development of the Inflatoplane (sometimes called the Inflatibird). Goodyear claimed it was 'suitable for all types of Army field operations, particularly reconnaissance'. MODEL NOT YET AVAILABLE.

Thumbnail
The Gossamer Albatross aircraft was designed to fly long distances with a human as the only power source.

The flight covered a distance of 22.25 statute miles in 2 hours and 49 minutes. Two sizes included in the folder with the large having a span of 36" !! We've included the parts and suggestions on how to build this model using clear Saran Wrap..

Lockheed Explorer

Thumbnail
There was great hope for the Lockheed Explorer, with designs on Antarctic exploration, and Trans-Pacific flights. But alas, the Explorer model turned out to be the least successful of all Lockheed's great early planes. A total of four Explorers were built and all four crashed. Even tho it sure was a good looking 1920s airplane. A cartoon cutout model of Roscoe Turner (Google him :) and his lion mascot is included.

Lockheed Sirius

Thumbnail
The Lockheed 8 Sirius was single engine, propeller driven monoplane designed and built by Jack Northrop and Gerard Vultee while they were engineers at Lockheed in 1929, at the request of Charles Lindbergh.

Lockheed Vega

Thumbnail
The Vega was a six-passenger monoplane built by the Lockheed company starting in 1927. It became famous for its use by a number of record breaking pilots who were attracted to the rugged and very long-ranged design.

Piper Tri-Pacer

Thumbnail
The Pacer was essentially a four-place version of the two-place PA-17 Vagabond light aircraft. It features a steel tube fuselage and an aluminum frame wing, covered with fabric, much like Piper's most famous aircraft, the Cub and Super Cub. An aircraft prized for its ruggedness, spacious cabin, and, for its time, impressive speed, many Pacers continue to fly today. Factory installed 125 hp, 135 hp and 150 hp engine options were available and 160 hp as well as 180 hp engine after-market conversions are an option.

Starduster-Classic-Sportplane

Thumbnail
This is the single place biplane designed by Lou Stolp back in 1964 that started it all. It is a very easy aircraft to fly, powered by engines in the 125 horsepower range... A fun machine! Constructed with a 4130 steel fuselage, wood spars and ribs, and covered with fabric, the Starduster-One could only be classified as "classic." A fun and easy model to make.

Stinson-Gullwing

A graceful airplane, the four- to five-place Gull Wings, called "Reliants" by the factory, were very large machines! Though they were not fast, they definitely were "character" airplanes with their own distinctive shape.
