...and the Sikorsky Bolshoi. Apparently during flight, passengers were invited out on to the balcony to enjoy the view, how civilised!

Does anyone know if a Junker 52 or Ford Tri-Motor 1/48 scale can be found ?

Revell make a 1/48 Ju 52. IIRC someone on here built one.

 I don't know what your skill base is.But last year I had a chat with Fram,here on the forum about tri engine planes,and ended up putting my money where my mouth is.Which ment writing a tutorial on building a Fokker tri engine plane from cereal packet card.The tutorial would take very little tweeking to come up with a model for the planes your looking for.

Great looking plane!

Does anyone know if a Junker 52 ...

Franklin Mint does a die cast one in 1/48 that is sweet looking if a bit pricey.
They also do the iconic DC-3.

Thanks guys, managed to find the Junker 52 from Revell.
Really a pity that some famous big planes are missing in 1/48 scale. The Ford Trimotor especially (nice custom work up there).

There is also a 1/50 scale paper kit from Schreiber Modellbaubögen of the Ju52...less pricey than any, but a lot more work though.

Have a look at aikensairplanes.com  - they have a bunch of Tri - Motors at 1/43 at various prices, I think the cheapest is about $60, (weirdly, there's a humungus 1/38 scale one cheaper)all the way up to "nurse, fetch the crash cart!".
 Hope this helps & good luck with the project.

Looks very good, thanks a lot. I'll keep you posted on my future projects. I saw amazing things here and I will be starting crafting stuff very soon for a Call of Cthulhu Pulpstyle adventure. I just bought 2 Playmobil Titan cargos and will try to build my sort of "Doreen".
