Huma Model THREE Messerschmitt Me-263 / Ju-248, 1/72, 2507
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Sealed NM
Sold
Still factory sealed. The Me-263 was designed to correct some of the Me-163s shortcomings. The ideas were tested on '163s before the first '263 airframe was assembled. Primary differences included lengthen fuselage for increased fuel capacity, pressurized cockpit, dual chamber (full and cruise) rocket engine, bubble canopy and retractable gear. Only two were built and it seems that she never flew under her own power.

Revell Convair 990 Coronado Swissair - Jet Airliner - Lodela Issue, 1/135, H254
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Exc++
Sold
Revell Lodela issue from the early to mid 1960s. This is a very nice kit of the fantastic Mach .91 airliner from the early 1960s. Two were flown by NASA well into the 1990s due the remarkable engineering (and NASA maintenance). NOTE: this kit has very minor and 'professional' quality sub-assembly as follows: four engines built. There is no other assembly. Inventoried with all parts present and includes decals (in excellent+++ condition) and instructions present. The Convair 990 and its near sister, the 880, were very high performance airliners. Unfortunately they did not find favor with commercial operators. The commercial failure of the 990 caused Revell (and Aurora) to pull these molds from production shortly after the introduction of the kit. The 990 was a larger and faster (Mach .91) airliner than the 880, but it failed to meet it's range criteria for east to west crossings of the USA. As a result, only 37 were made. Interestingly enough, several 990s continued to be operated by private owners and NASA operated two for decades after the last one was phased out of commercial service. Only 65 880s were produced from 1959 to 1962. The aircraft was designed to be smaller and faster than the DC-8 and 707 - this market did not develop, however, and if it did it could have been served with less expensive designs.
