Model Airplane Factory, presents to you our C-124 Globemaster. The Air Force C124 Globemaster is meticulously carved and painted to reflect the true detail of the original aircraft. After passing through several stages of sanding and priming, our talented artists paint and detail the replica with historically correct markings of the C-124 Globemaster aircraft. Muliple coats of clear lacquer is applied in model to protect the exquisite artwork and provide an overall glossy finish. The C124 airplane is supplied with a mahogany base for display.

The first flight of a C-124 manufactured by Douglas Aircraft Company took place on November 27, 1949. The C-124A was followed in service by the C-124C, which featured more-powerful engines as well as wingtip-mounted combustion heaters that provided cabin heating and wing and tail surface deicing, and an APS-42 weather radar in a distinctive nose "thimble." These latter improvements were eventually retrofitted to the C-124As.

Most were passed to the Air National Guard and Air Force Reserve by 1970. The first ANG unit to receive the C-124C was the last Air Force unit to retire their aircraft (s/n 52-1066 & 53-0044) in September, 1974.
