Early Flight Models by AM USAThere is a sense of romanticism and nostalgia connected to early flight. The early WWI pilots took off from farmer’s fields for their scheduled morning combat. Early mono-, bi-, and tri-planes have distinctive nostalgic appeal with their fabric covered lightweight wood frames, varnished wood, leather, brass and noisy oil-leaking engines.
