This stunning photograph captures the sleek lines and intricate details of a Megow's Models Stinson 105 free flight model aircraft. Dated circa 1960, this 50-inch scale model replicates the classic design of the Stinson 105 aircraft, a popular choice among model aviation enthusiasts during the mid-20th century. The Stinson 105 was a versatile and reliable aircraft, known for its durability and ease of flight. Megow's Models, a well-respected name in the model aviation community, produced high-quality balsa wood model kits that allowed hobbyists to build their own replicas of this iconic aircraft. In the photograph, the model is shown suspended in mid-air, its wings outstretched and propeller spinning, giving the impression of a real aircraft in flight. The meticulous attention to detail is evident in the model's authentic markings, including the registration number "N31111" and the "Stinson Aircraft Company" insignia. The photograph is part of The Peter Butt Aviation Collection, a vast archive of historical aviation imagery from the late 19th and 20th centuries. The collection spans the entire history of aviation, from early balloon flights to the jet age, and includes a wealth of material on model aviation and aviation history. This photograph is a testament to the enduring appeal of model aviation and the passion of the hobbyists who dedicate their time and energy to building and flying these intricate replicas. It is a reminder of a bygone era when model aviation was a popular pastime and a gateway to a lifelong love of aviation for many.
