Truly amazing!! Talk about dedication, craftsmanship and patience……….WOW!!
Rides a Pale Horse

We got this from Rides, the story of retired dentist Young C. Park whose dedicated craftsmanship has fabricated some truly amazing model airplanes using aluminum.

Retired Dentist Young C. Park

P51 Mustang

Corsair

Using a tweezers, the controls can be moved. All cables and linkages are in place to work the wing control surfaces as well. Young Park has since carved a pilot’s face and hands from solid aluminum and built an articulated pilot to sit in the cockpit. (Photo: George F. Lee, Honolulu Star-Bulletin)

Here’s pic of fingers and tweezers to give scale……… Sooooo small!!!

Remember this as you look at the pics……….. All the controls work as designed, by cables, chains, linkages and levers.

All these controls WORK!!!!!…….. And that means they work the parts of the aircraft via rods and chains as in the original aircraft!!!!

Every single part hand made and fitted.

It blows you away, doesn’t it???

Don’t forget the tiny scale……… go up again and look at the pic of the fingers and tweezers!

Machine guns and bullets………

Detail of three .50 Cal. machine guns and ammo cans. Ammo cans are loaded outside the aircraft and then simply set into place in the wing. Their doors become the top surface of the wing. This allowed for rapid reloading by the ground crew.
