Douglas DC-3 and C-47
Scale Models
Static and Radio Controlled
This page of the DASA website is dedicated to the aircraft scale modelling enthusiasts, especially those keen on the DC-3 and C-47 scale models.
Contributions in the way of model kit reviews, photographs of completed models or any suggestions as to what can be done to improve this page will be most welcome.
I would like to encourage modellers to prepare DC-3 and C-47 models for display at the DC-3 75th anniversary celebrations in December 2010. Venue and format of function still to be determined.
