The General Dynamics F-111 is one of the most controversial aircraft that ever flew. Perhaps no other aircraft before or since has been so bitterly criticized in the media for a multitude of design problems. The F-111 was the subject of protracted and bitter debates within Congress, with opponents denouncing the aircraft as a "Flying Edsel" that was more dangerous to the US than it was to any potential enemy.
Our craftsmen have created a perfect replica, hand-carved from solid mahogany. All details are handcrafted and finished with a high gloss for a beautiful wood grain look.
