Bellanca CH-300 Pacemaker LITUANICA

387 Hideo  9.1 years ago

This is my replica of legendary plane Lituanica. Lituanica was a Bellanca CH-300 Pacemaker airplane flown from Unated States across the Atlantic Ocean by Lithuanian pilots S. Darius and S. Girenas in 1933. After succesfully flying 6411 km, it crashed, due to undetermined cicrustances, 650 km from its destination, Kaunas, Lithuania. I was trying to recreate real plane, so it full of fuel and very heavy. It very hard to take off and control. R.I.P. Lithuanian heroes Darius and Girenas.
