    • This wonderful vintage plane has been recreated by Nick Dean (aka -NickD-). The Boeing 314 is one of the beautiful airplanes from an era when flying still had a romantic flair, and the world was shrinking due to the incoming rapidity of long-distance travel. Nick’s model is of a specific Boeing 314, the “Yankee Clipper” which flew for Pan-Am starting in 1939.

      It is now. I had a feeling that would happen. I’m pretty sure Nick replaced the photo after editing out the bit he missed.

      Darn it, I was going to build one of these.
      Not sculptured like that, with rounded and smooth parts, but still…
      I guess I can still build mine later. :)
