This model Airplane was specially produced
for show.  An electric or gas engine can be
added to this plane. Built by J Crewel
Back in 1926. Henry Ford had a dream. He had built cars for more than 20 years with amazing success. and he hoped that if he applied some of the same ideas to the world of personal aviation, the flying Flivver would become the Model T of the skies. Flying was just becoming accepted as a safe form of passenger transportation, but the idea of people flying their own planes the way they drove their cars was a bit optimistic; the Flivver did not catch on. Nevertheless, the plane was well designed, and though it never turned a profit, it has become a great subject for modelers. Now, modelers can experience the excitement of this Golden Age aerobat in ARF form with Dymond's superb 71-inch rendition of Henry Ford's dream machine.
