B-25 Mitchell "Executive Sweet" model aircraft, wingspan 18 1/2 in. x length 14 3/4 in. . Hand carved from solid mahogany and completely hand painted. Your model comes complete with a solid mahogany and chrome stand as shown. More than 10,000 B-25s were manufactured during the War. The B-25 Mitchell was arguably regarded as the best aircraft in its class, even though it did not have the performance of the Martin bombers. The "J" model, with the glass nose that housed the bombardier, was the most prolific. Our master craftsmen,working from three-dimensional drawings, chip away the excess wood from the kiln-dried block until an airplane amazingly appears. They work their tools with remarkable precision and unusual attention to detail. Several stages of fine sanding, between primer coats, produce a silky smooth finish ready for final painting. Talented artists using ultra-fine brushes, paint the nose art, stripes and markings. We select the aircraft and paint schemes for their historical significance and authenticity. A final coat of clear lacquer provides lasting protection to the exquisite finish. Please allow 2-3 weeks for delivery. Every order gets our personal attention! (311) AB25ES
