Paper Model of

The 'Chance Vought F4U Corsair' was an American fighter aircraft that saw service in World War II and the Korean War. Corsairs flew their final combat missions during the 1969 "Football War" between Honduras and El Salvador. The conflict was famously triggered, though not really caused, by a disagreement over a football (soccer) match. Both sides claimed various numbers of kills, and each side disputed the claims of the other. This model is 1:33 of the original plane. Its my favourite one. Cuz its a unique airplane, the wings are slightly curved and the whole cockpit is visible. Material used- 100% paper. And all handwork done with normal synthetic adhesive. It took me more than 1.5 months to complete. The good thing about paper modelling is that every minute, the excitement increases to see the final product and dats why I indulge myself in this hobby so much. I would like to thank Mr. DeWayne Barnett for his incouragement and providing me the knowledge. Thanks for visiting. Do write your email ID after Your comments. Call me or email me if you want to buy / order any of my completely built models (Please be noted that the plans are not sold here).
