Model Airways
This true-to-life static model reproduces virtually every detail of the real aircraft. We have designed our model without the customary fabric covering to show its fascinating structural components. Kit contains laser cut basswood parts for ribs and other wooden components plus a host of Britannia metal parts for building the engine, complete with cylinders, magneto and radiator. We include brass chain and over 160 photo-etched brass parts for fittings and braces to simulate the Wright Brothers’ construction methods. Three detailed, actual size plan sheets and a 28-page illustrated step-by-step assembly manual will assist both novice and expert modelers in the completion of a museum quality model.
