THE MOVIE: THE ETERNAL SEA WAS MADE FOR HIS SERVICE.THIS ISA HUGEORIGINAL EARLY 1950s 1/24 SCALE FACTORY DESK MODEL OF A CHANCE VOUGHT F7U-1 CUTLASS JET FIGHTER. THIS PLANE WAS NOTED IN HISTORY AS A VERY ADVANCED DESIGN WHICH ACTUALLY CAUSED IT'S QUICK DEMISE. IT WAS KNOWN AS "THE GUTLESS CUTLASS" FOR IT'S LACK OF ENGINE POWER AND POOR HANDLING CAPABILITIES. NUMEROUS TEST PILOTS ANDUS NAVAL AVIATORS LOST THEIR LIVES IN THISAIRPLANE. THE MODEL IS HAND CARVED WOOD WHICH WAS THEN FORMED WITH FILLER, PAINT AND LAQUER TO GIVE IT THE EXACTING LOOK OF THE REAL PLANE. THE CANOPY IS MOLDED CLEAR PLASTIC THAT WAS BLENDED INTO THE FUSELAGE. IT'S JUST JUST SLAP GLUED ON (SEE PHOTOS). THIS WAS A SUPEBLY EXECUTED DESK MODEL, AND NOT A CRANKED OUT GIVE-AWAY PROMO, LIKE TOPPING, ETC... I'M 100% SURE IT'S A ONE OFF, BUT PLEASE SEE MY PHOTOS TO BE SURE. I WAS ADVISED BY THE ESTATE HANDLERS THAT THE MODEL WAS OBTAINED FORM CHANCE VOUGHTM AND HAS BEEN IN THE SAME FAMILY FOR DECADES. IT WAS FOUND STORED IN THE ATTIC. THE MODEL MEASURES JUST ABOUT 19" LONG. THE WINGSPAN IS ABOUT 18 3/4" WIDE. IT'S A BIG SUCKER" PLEASE SEE MY PHOTO OF THE PLANE WITH A NORMAL SIZE SODA CAN TO GIVE IT SOME SCALE. THE BASE IS TURNED WOOD, AND FINISH TO MATCH THE COLOR & GLOSS OF THE MODEL. IT HAS THE ORIGINAL BRASS DATA PLATE TACKED TO THE FRONT (SEE CLOSE-UP PHOTOS). THE MODEL IS COMPLETE & ALL ORGINAL. IT'S NOT BROKEN UP, ALTERED, REGLUED, REPAIRED, WARPED UP, ROTTED OR FALLING APART. THE BLUE PAINT FINSH & FILLER HAVE SOME NICKS AND CHIPS HERE & THERE FOMR AGE & STORAGE, BUT NOTHING HUGE & GAPING. THERE IS A CHIP TO THE FILLER FINISH ON THE RIGHT UPPER WING, AND A SMALL MINOR EDGE CHIP ON THE TRAILING EDGE OF THE RIGHT WING (SEE PHOTOS). ALSO, I CAN SEE A HAIRLINE CRACK TO THE FINISH AROUND THE COCKPIT WHERE THE MOLDED PLASTIC CANOPY WAS BLENDED INTO THE THE FUSELAGE (SEE PHOTOS). NOTHING IS LOOSE OR FALLING APART. THE MODEL IS TRULY AS SOLID AS A ROCK & TIGHT ALL OVER. THE BASE IS NOT CRACKED, BROKEN ORLOOSE. THE PLANE PLUGS INTO THE BASE FINE, AND SITS ON THE BASE FIRM AND SQUARE. IT'S NOT WOBBLY.
