Model Airplanes from the 1930s-1960s

showed this to my grandpa. he said it reminded him of the aeroplanes he used to build as a boy.

where did you find this footage Ilove buliding and flying the models of yesteryear

Nice transition from the jacket-and necktie crowd with odd-looking free-flight airplanes all the way to golf shirts and off-the-shelf radio control! Another good one, Bomberguy.

Superb. One of the very most enjoyable videos I have seen on YouTube so far. !!!

I sell the plans to many of these jewels. SWEET!

Awesome Video, I am a model flier and I pretty much respect my "ancestors"!!! xD

Beautiful video. The obsession is still strong today.

My brother had a string flown japanees zero that he let me play with when I was a kid. I remember it was really loud when it ran.

Outstanding! Thanks for providing this.

Very good video. thank you.

Is that rare footage? Man I should subscribe.

was they on the 3ghz then???
check out my r/c vids

Yup. Could fit one of those in my pocket.

I fly rc planes now. But it looks like more people was in to it then. nice video

lovely... the beginning of our pasion...

i think in that time was more serious than now... i mean, you can buy pre-builded "toys" that the people think they are "model planes".... in my opinion, nothing is compare to build your own plane, starting from wood pieces...

the starter was very "portable"

hehe no BL

super tare .......

Enjoyed this very much! Used to build and fly control line in my younger days. Thanks for sharing this.

That is so awsome. Airplanes facinate me- I wanna get a piolet's liscence.
