A25 Sterling Aeronca C-3 - 36 Inch Wingspan for Free Flight or R/C
Wood Model Kit, Box Condition: Sealed NM
Still factory sealed and very rare in this condition. This is a large-scale model for free flight, radio control conversion (R/C) or control line. It features die cut balsa parts, die-cut plywood parts, other wood stock as required, vacuform engine, cowling and other detail parts, completely finished scale wheels, metal and nylon hardware for the gas powered version, pre-formed metal gear struts, rubber motor, tissue, propeller, full size plans and a very large color decal sheet. Sterling was a famous manufacturer dating back to the 1930/40s flying model craze. Although they continued to produce kits for decades after the flying model slump following World War II, they eventually fell victim to the general lack of interest in modeling that occurred in the early 1980s. I always considered Sterling models to be deluxe kits as they were very complete.
