Avrocar

[claidheamhmor]

I finished my model of the Avro Canada VZ-9 Avrocar, along with a couple of 3d-printed visitors looking for transport home. Likely the smallest 1/72 model jet I've ever made. This was a real aircraft (but it did not fly well); it was made in the 1950s, and the service ceiling was a lofty 3 feet, much lower than the design called for! This example is on display in the Smithsonian Museum.
