The sleek all-metal Luscombe Silvaire is probably one of modelings most neglected subjects. Due to it's clean smooth lines, the Luscombe 8E would cruise at 100 mph while only burning four gallons of fuel per hour—and fully aerobatic! For low-cost low-maintenance flying, the Luscome is hard to beat.
What better way to kick off the brand new dar series of civilian light planes than with this Pat Tritle designed classic. Pat's standard lightweight stick and tissue construction builds up to a strong, lightweight airplane for small electric power. Low cost, low maintenance schoolyard flying at its best!
The photo above is not a studio prop. Pat Tritle spent quite a few hours detailing the panel lines and rivets. With a little time and patience, you too, can achieve this beautiful looking finished flying model.
