This De Havilland Dragon Rapide is a replica of a former RAF aircraft, now owned by the Classic Aircraft Trust. The Trust was established in 2012 by Mike Collett, whose aim is to preserve a unique collection of airworthy aircraft from the UK's postwar era. The air museum is based in Newquay, Cornwall and is open to visitors, where you can see the real life version of our model. Affectionately known as "Nettie", this 1:72 replica is decorated in silver with white upper fuselage and fin rudder. The upper engine covers and the propeller spinners are painted mid blue and the propeller blades are grey with yellow tips. The upper and lower wings carry the RAF roundel and the tail fin features the red, white and blue vertical RAF stripes. A final detail includes an air speed windmill which is positioned on the upper left wing.
