Looking to sell my Authentic Models DC-3 airplane. Airplane is out of scale with everything else I have and my shelves aren't big enough for it, so it always looks odd on display. So it is up to sale for someone who will give it a good home and wants a very nice model. The airplane is fabric stretched over frame with metal and some plastic parts. Control surfaces do move but not a lot.
Model is in good condition with a few minor blemishes. Also has two other issues. The first is that in order to keep them in place, I glued the wings into place (these were supposed to screw in but kept coming loose). As a result, the wings can't be taken off for shipping. Also one of the engine cowlings has a small dent in it (plane came to me like this). If you turn the cowling to have the dent on the bottom side, it's not very noticeable. Just want to be very up front and honest about the airplane.
Wingspan is about 38 inches and the length is 26 and a half inches. Some of these airplanes come with a stand, this one did not when I bought it.
PLEASE NOTE: I will pack this item carefully, but the buyer should be aware that this will cost a lot to ship because the wings can't be removed.
I paid $350 for this model new. I'm asking $200 with actual shipping charges to your location.
Anyone interested please send me a pm. Thanks
