Produktbeschreibung

Antique and classic models are not "antiques", but replicas that are intended to remind us of the early, golden days of model aviation. The antique modelling scene has gained a lot of popularity over the last few years: Many model aviation enthusiasts no longer want to follow the path of ever larger models with their high-tech equipment. The rounded forms of the antique and classic models stand out from the modern technologically determined standard forms - and amaze younger people. The smell of fuel and varnish inspires some older model pilots and brings back forgotten memories of their youth. In addition to an introduction to antique and classic aeromodelling and a broad theoretical and practical knowledge, the book contains an extensive and impressive as well as illustrated collection of over 100 antique model portraits, which were taken at antique model meetings in Germany and nearby foreign countries. The author, Dr Heinrich Eder, has been active in the model aviation scene for almost seventy years. In the book, he gives an overview of building materials, stringing methods, and the design of the "antiques" - spanning from the past to the present. In addition, Eder addresses topics such as aerodynamics and the profile problems of vintage models as well as the typical drives from the compressed air engine to the carburettor diesel and gives important tips on installation.
