The Seawind Aircraft is a perfect union of form and function. The sleek flowing lines make it the most striking of land or seaplanes. We have developed the world’s best and fastest four/five place amphibian. There’s probably a little sailor in every pilot. Many of us own or have owned boats. Virtually all of us feel a special affinity for the sea. For that reason, amphibious aircraft have seemed a perfect marriage of interests. Imagine a fast, quality airplane with the flexibility to land on normal runways or double as a speedboat, albeit a very expensive one. For an amphibian, sky, ground and water are all friendly elements. Even if you’re a pilot who’s not into boats, that’s an attractive concept, especially if you fly to places where hard runways are hard to come by. Made from top quality balsa wood construction with fiberglass fuselage. Includes all hardware and accessories.

In the early years of WW II, the Japanese Mitsubishi A6M virtually ruled the skies. How did this fast, maneuverable fighter earn the diminutive nickname of “Zero” when it easily outscored its P-40 Warhawk and F4F Wildcat opponents? There’s a simple answer: when it was first built, the last digit in the Japanese calendar year was a zero. Although only one flyable Zero is left in the world, you can re-create the drama and terror it inspired with this ARF .25 version from NitroModels.

The Piper Pawnee was designed and built for agricultural spraying and crop dusting. The wings were cranked to get the spray bars running along the trailing edge as close to the crops as possible. The pilot was given an excellent view from a cockpit placed high on the fuselage of the low-wing monoplane. The fuselage was designed to protect the pilot, with the cockpit being designed as a strong capsule that would remain undamaged even in slow-speed crashes associated with spraying. The undercarriage was also designed to be very strong and specialized struts helped absorb the rough takeoffs and landings that occurred on dirt roads of the farms. Because the potential for contamination by toxic chemicals was great, the cockpit ventilation system was reconfigured so the air intake was high enough to avoid spray fallout and the entire top section of the fuselage could be removed for quick and easy cleaning. The Piper Pawnee was, and remains, a very strong and purpose-built workhorse, now regarded as a classic. Many Pawnees have nowadays found their way to glider airfields where they are very popular as glider tugs due to their good power-to-weight ratio.

The Taylorcraft is a conventional layout, high wing, fabric covered, two seat aircraft known for its speed and efficiency on limited horsepower engines. The designer, Clarence Taylor, can rightfully be called the father of private aviation in America. Clarence Taylor first designed the Taylor Cub, which became the Piper Cub—notably civilian aviation’s most recognized airplane. After Mr. Taylor was forced to sever ties with his financier William Piper because of conflicting goals, he vowed to build a new, personal aircraft superior to the Cub in all respects, and succeeded. The Taylorcraft was faster, more comfortable, more attractive, and more modern by the standards of the day. By the 1940s, the Taylorcraft was a mainstay on the civilian aviation front.

The McDonnell Douglas Corporation’s F-15 Eagle was designed to be a tactical fighter to gain and maintain air superiority in aerial combat. The F-15 Eagle was developed out of the lessons learned from Vietnam and the need for the United States Air Force to have a dedicated air superiority fighter. The F-15 was delivered into service in the late 1970s and remained in service with the USAF for over twenty years. The F-15 was successful in achieving air superiority through use of avionics, weapons, speed, and maneuverability. Its electronic systems and weaponry could detect, track, and attack enemy aircraft while the flight control systems can allow one person to effectively perform air-to-air combat. E-flite has replicated the F-15 Eagle as a sport, scale model. This military fighter model boasts the scale Edwards Air Force Base Safety Chase trim scheme making it a very attractive and highly visible plane. Spend less time building and more time flying, this model comes out of the box fully painted red and silver on white foam with custom decals applied. It even includes retracts.
