Cleveland 1938 Turner-Laird Pesco Special Racer - Balsa Flying Model Airplane Kit, 1/16, SF-72

Wood Model Kit,   Box Condition: Good

$75   

This is a Cleveland 'SF' or 'Scale Flying' model in museum scale of 1/16. This is an early cardboard box issue with silver printing. All Cleveland kits were very complete and this one is no exception. Features very high quality balsa printwood and strip wood, covering material, pre-carved nose, partially machined wheel pants, finished wheels, ready to use prop blades, markings to convert the aircraft to the 1939 race winner, highest quality plans, and more. The model has not been started. Inventoried 100% complete with all parts and instructions. NOTE: there is light bug damage to the paperwork. The Cleveland Model and Supply Company played a pivotal role in the development of true scale models. In 1909 Bleriot's English Channel flight caused a surge in aviation and model aircraft around the globe. Several companies were ideally positioned to take advantage of the aviation craze. In the USA, Wading River Manufacturing Co. (1909), White Aeroplane (1911), Ideal Model Aeroplane (1911), Broadfield Model Aeroplanes (1919) were among these pioneers, offering everything from plans and parts to complete kits and ARF models. Lindbergh's 1927 crossing of the Atlantic Ocean caused an even bigger world-wide phenomenon called "The Aviation Craze" that extended up to the start of World War II. Many companies such as Megow, Guillow's and others started right around the time of Lindbergh's flight. Some of these models flew and flew well, but they all had one thing in common - were generally not accurate scale representations. In 1929, a youngster named Ed Packard had a very advanced dream- to produce incredibly accurate, true scale models that flew perfectly. This radical idea established the world's longest running single-owner (77 years) model airplane business- Cleveland Model and Supply Company. To this day, Cleveland models are treasured as the most accurate flying scale models produced. The fact that Mr. Packard started and successfully grew this business during The Great Depression is a testament to his ideals and business skill. I highly suggest the excellent book called 'Aviation's great Recruiter- Cleveland's Ed Packard' by H.L. (Herm) Schreiner. It is an excellent history of the man, his company and the times of the Golden Age of Model Aviation.

Art Model Yakovlev Yak-36 Freehand - VTOL, 1/72, AM7203

Plastic Model Kit,   Box Condition: Exc

$29   

Features fine recessed panel lines, 'good' cockpit, many optional position underside doors and/or exhaust vents, full landing gear and more. Includes decals for multiple aircraft. Never started. The parts are still in the internal factory sealed bags and includes decals and instructions. The Yak-36 was designer Alexander Yakovlev's creation. He was so impressed when he saw the British Short SC.1 perform at Farnborough that he built a test-bed similar to the Hawker Kestrel style. Three prototypes were built, numbered 36,37 and 38. The first flight was in 1966 and it was first displayed to the public at the Domodedovo Air Show in 1967. NATO intelligence was shocked at the appearance of a VTOL aircraft; however they need not have worried as the Yak-36 was unstable and unsuited for combat. However, the experience gained was important to the future development of the much more successful Yak-38 Forger.
