We have produced this version of the 1930s De Havilland Dragon Rapide bi-plane as a special commission for a Swiss client but are pleased to announce that there will be a quantity available to UK Oxford Aviation collectors.
Our 1:72 scale model is based on an aircraft that flew out of Wien/Munchen (Vienna/Munich) in 1937. It appears in a distinctive 'aluminium' silver colour scheme with the famous white out of red Swissair logo on the tail and black graphics. Its identity markings HB - APA appear in black on the upper and undersides of the wings and along the side of the fuselage behind the wings. Its propeller spinner and blades are silver grey and it has a transparent nose cone and pitot tube. Other trim is finished in black, including the exhaust pipes.
