You�ve seen these on the shelves and desks of airline executives, military pilots and in air museums. Quality scale model aircraft/helicopters carved from kiln-dried wood and painted to the highest detail, it can take up to two months to produce just one aircraft. There are only about four companies in the Philippines that make these models, and there production methods are highly guarded secrets. The craftsmen will make any aircraft real or imagined, custom painted with call letters of your choice. What a fantastic gift for the aeronautical fan or pilot you may know, and they are surprisingly affordable. |
