Cleaning out a cabinet I fond this. A Minicraft 1/144th DC3, I did this build about 18 years ago, was pretty proud of it. It has since lost some pieces and I dont know where the display I made for it went….which is to bad because is was kinda cool. I lost part of the wheel brace and the port Prop :(. This was way before I became the Bike Queen 🙂

Just posting to show i did indeed build other things 🙂

Only one photo

@johnb thanks John it was fun, simple, but fun. :). Had to glue the wheel, tail wheel and prop back on…was upset I could find the other prop

@chinesegeorge as far a s I know, may AC knowledge is limited too, they are the same plane but the Brits called it “Dakota”. I also vaguely remember one being a cargo plane and the other being passenger….but I have no idea if thats true or not. I’m sure someone will answer this question better than me 🙂

Excellent job on this DC-3, my friend @bikequeen!

Still looks great after all these years.

A really nice showcase, Cricket @bikequeen
Did you build that yourself as well.

Well done, Cricket (@bikequeen). Nice model, and the display case is also really nice. You need to build more planes to take some breaks from bikes.

Hi Cricket @bikequeen, one problem with aircraft models is the display space they take up, that’s partly why I got into 1/12 scale bikes. Nice job on that DC3 by the way.
