Thank you for sharing! This brought back memories when I used to build these same planes as a kid in the 60's. I used wax paper over the instructions instead of pins. I wish I kept some of those kits. Thanks again!

I love Guillow's kits! Built many of them throughout my model building life. But it all started with a simple Aeronca Champ. Good work!

This kit is a classic. Easy, instructional and fun. I’m (slowly) working on a full-scale flying replica now, when life doesn’t get in the way. As a joke, before the engine (VW Torquemaster) is installed I think it would be fun to make a giant fake plywood prop and hook it up to a bunch of bungee cords, so that when we haul it out of the hangar and turn the prop, it looks like we’re winding up the rubber band in the airplane model.

Damn. Time sure flies . . . whether or not the model does. Made one of these almost exactly fifty years ago. Except that I finished the papering and all. I went for more of a Werner Voss look.

Hi thank you. I used Vallejo Model color, Red 71.269. This is acrylic paint.

i also want to make this model as a non-flying static display. So I am going for details like a seat and control column, more detailed machine guns. etc. i need to either purchase or make a propeller. any ideas? thanks.

@@gord-tj6qs hi. i think you can refer to hasegawa plastic model 1/8. i dont know this is still on sale. very expensive. maybe you can find its manual for reference.

When are going to cover and finish it?!

@nairbllebpmac4179 4 жыл бұрын

Nice job. I built this model back in 2010 and another just arrived today which I will start soon. Did you cover with tissue at all or just leave the frame only for display? Thank you for sharing!

@user-qt9jp6pm3k 4 жыл бұрын

Hello. Thank you. I didn’t cover it cause I think this triplane is more beautiful as frame body. Hope you enjoy it too.

flight？

@user-qt9jp6pm3k 3 жыл бұрын

hello? I made a display version, but actually you can make a flight version with rubber band or small cox engine. Sadly cox engine is no more produced. Thank you.
