Aerovac Farman F.224, 1/72
Vacuform Model Kit, Box Condition: NM
Sold
French four engined transport from the 1930s and WWI. The 224 was originally intended developed as an airliner for Air France from the successful F.223 mailplane. However, Air France rejected the design for safely reasons - it could not fly if one of the engines (2 per prop) stopped. The French Military saw the 224 as a perfect answer to it's paratrooper transport needs and 6 were built and used for this purpose. Missions were planned in WWII but not executed, and one 224 was lost to a Bf-110 in combat. High quality injection molded main parts, with many cast resin parts, injection molded parts and full decals with drawings. Complete and unstarted.

Guillows Supermarine Spitfire - 27 inch Wingspan Rubber/RC/CL Flying Model, 1/16, 403
Wood Model Kit, Box Condition: Exc+++
Sold
Large scale well detailed kit. Can be flown rubber free flight, gas free flight, or converted to electric RC using today's small and light servos and receivers. Well detailed with scale plastic wheels, plastic propeller, vacuform nose/cowl and engine, full color decals, colored tissue, die cut balsa parts, rubber motor, plywood firewall and excellent 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, decals and instructions. Guillow's founder, Paul K. Guillow, was a WWI naval aviator. In 1926 he began producing wooden model airplane kits. His 'Shelf Models' were some of the earlier non-flying models in production. Guillow's grew during the model boom of the 1930s, and when the Depression hit the hardest, Guillow's responded with lower prices and became one of the low price leaders, frequently advertising in Model Airplane News and other leading publications. During the war, like most manufacturers, Guillow's was forced to alternative materials such as cardboard and pine. Guillow's survived the post WWII slump by creating many inexpensive profile flying rubber powered aircraft and gliders in the 1950s (along with North Pacific) which became famous - some are still available today. The stick and tissue lines have been updated with laser cut parts and are still in production as of 2009.

Unknown Berliner-Joyce XFJ-2 - Wooden Aircraft Kit, 1/28, D-9
Wood Model Kit, Box Condition: Good+
Sold
Very rare 1930s large scale solid kit from an unknown kit manufacture. The kit number is D-9. The Berliner-Joyce XFJ-2 was the original XFJ with a cowling, Townend ring and a 500-hp R-1340-92 Wasp engine. Performance was very good, but ground handling was less than optimal. The Navy did reconsider the XFJ but decided on other aircraft instead. The aircraft was flown for a few years for various tests and scrapped. Evidently only one was ever made. The kit has minor assembly - the original owner began to rough out the fuselage in profile. The quality of work is good. There is no other assembly and the kit is complete with all wooden parts, fuselage templates, full size plans (very near 1/32 scale), original corked glass vials for glue and paint, turned wood wheels and bamboo.

Inter-Island Airways of Hawaii (later Hawaiian Airlines) bought three of the planes for Pan-Am and local Hawaiian island inter-island service. Only one commercial aircraft went overseas to serve with a Norwegian airline.
