BIRD DOG - Glow or EP
- ALL BALSA & PLYWOOD CONSTRUCTION
- COVERED WITH ORACOVER
The original aircraft played a major role in both the Korean and Vietnamese wars in either communication or spotting roles. Like the original, the model has very docile handling characteristics and good STOL capability, thanks to the highly effective flaps. One was even landed on a US carrier with an escaping family onboard!
Construction is from laser cut balsa and ply parts that are factory jig assembled and hand finished. That attractive grey colourscheme comes courtesy of durable Oracover film.
The wings can be removed for easy transport.
A light aircraft with a difference!
