1/31 CZ Model
North American N-17 / NAV-4 Navion Metal Covered Solid Model VG++ Wood_Metal old | ||
| Very close to 1/32 scale. 1940s issue when the original manufacture of the Navion, North American, was still producing the aircraft for the military and civil markets. The rights were later sold to Ryan. When aircraft modeling became popular in the 1930s, most builders made flying models. However, there were a measurable percentage of hobbyist who insisted on making static (called 'solid' models) scale models with the maximum amount of detail in the best tradition of ship modelers. The kits they used to practice their art were basic. Many times the kit consisted of blocks of wood and plans - the famous "Make Wood Look Like Airplane" kits from the 1930 and 1940s. This did not stop them from producing magnificent works of art, many of which are in museums around the world. The more deluxe kits, such as this CZ Model Airplane Company example, came with all parts cut in 3D profile, a host of smaller details and in this case rivet embossed aluminum sheet precut to cover the model! A very innovative kit, but certainly not easy to assemble. The model has not been started. The parts are either in factory sealed bag(s) or inventoried 100% complete with all parts and instructions. | |||

#FG-6 Midwest
Fortastrop 36 inch Wingspan Free Flight Airplane for Sport or Competition Exc Wood old | ||
| From the 1940s. Flying model aircraft predated powered flight; however, balsa wood and printwood were not introduced until the early 1930s and the hobby took off, as well as the hunt for thermals. Gas flight began in the early 1930s, and gas powered models, all powered by Brown engines, took home so many awards that they were forever separated from rubber powered models. Design of gas models was tricky since RC could not yet be applied to the mass market; so a gas model had to not only fly and climb under power, but then glide sufficiently - all without any operator inputs once the airplane took off. Getting the wing up out of the propeller airflow was a huge improvement, and this type of design proliferated. This is one example of a parasol style 1940s free-flight competition aircraft designed by FS Garcher. Quality kit includes printwood, strip wood, wheels, tissue and beautiful full size plans. The model has not been started. The parts are either in factory sealed bag(s) or inventoried 100% complete with all parts and instructions. | |||
