WWI Laminated Airplane Propeller

WWI Laminated Airplane Propeller - Imagine a ground crewman winding a propeller airplane, and on the 'contact' sign from the pilot swings the engine into sputtering life. The only instrument was an oil pressure meter. Pilots started to worry when oil didn't fly around covering everything. 'Fly by wire' was the trick then; the plane was flown by guy-wires attached to the wings. Mimicking a bird, really....

Wood propellers are the icons of early flight. While originals are rare and highly collectible, our faithful reproductions of WWI laminated propellers are made in the same way as originals in the 1920s. Hard wood from birch plantations in Kamchatka. The hardware is also a true reproduction of the originals. WWI Laminated Propellors make fun aeronautical decor, mounted on a wall or just leaning in a corner. A conversation piece for certain. A wonderful gift for the history buff to hang on his office wall. The WWI Laminated Propeller is a decorative aircraft prop which measures 4.25"x2.25"x47.25" Propellers are made in China from Chinese Birch Wood. View all of our Authentic Models Products.
