Sterling AT-6 Texan - 18 inch Wingspan for CL or Rubber - Landing Gear Operates in Flight, A9-149

Wood Model Kit,   Box Condition: Exc+

Sold   

Excellent model designed rubber free flight or control line. Includes an innovative system for making the landing gear operate in flight. Features high-quality all die-cut balsa sheets of parts, factory-cut spars and strip wood, wood stock as required, a beautiful clear vacuform canopy (that is still like new with no yellowing), vacuform light-weight plastic gear well, cowl with motor, air scoop and pilot bust, plastic propeller and rubber moror, all metal hardware for the retracting gear, completely finished main gear and tail wheels, finished thrust button and other hardware, full color decals (in mint condition), covering tissue and excellent full size plans with instructions. Never started. The small parts are still in the factory sealed Sterling bag; that parts that were never sealed have been inventoried complete with all paperwork. 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 kits to be deluxe kits as they had unique working features, color decals, high-grade die cut balsa, vacuform plastic detail parts, clear canopies, wire landing gear and excellent instructions.

Features quality balsa printwood, strip stock, fully formed wheels and thrust button, balsa prop, covering material and full plans. The kit has never been started and is complete. The entire Comet 1950s "N" line included the following (gaps mean there is no kit, at least at that time): N1 Tiger Shark P-40, N2 F-86D Sabre Jet, N4 Globe Swift, N6 Taylorcraft, N8 F-51 Mustang, N9 Helicopter, N11 Ryan Navion, N12 Firefly, N15 Piper Cub, N16 Fokker DVII, N17 Spad, N24 Phantom Fury, N25 Aeronca K (floats) and N26 Stinson SR-7. Comet was a famous manufacturer of stick and tissue flying and static models. In the 1930s Great Depression, they lead the low-priced kit revolution with the "Dime Scale" kits and famous advertisements in Model Airplane News magazine and others. Comet reached it's peak in the 1930s when they acquired the services of Carl Goldberg. Goldberg was a highly accomplished modeler with articles in Model Airplane News and famous designs that won him several National level competitions in the 1930s and beyond. (Carl Goldberg went on to found his own company and produced well designed and popular free-flight and RC aircraft). Comet survived the post World War economic slump and continued kit production until they were bought out by long-time competitor Guillow's in 1998.
