Navigating by the compass in a sea of clouds over Spain is all very well, it is very dashing, but - you want to remember that below the sea of clouds lies eternity.
— Antoine de Saint Exupéry, 'Wind, Sand, and Stars,' 1939
Full-Size Instruments
This is a brand new line of products. We prepared, designed and crafted it especially for those who, like us, fell in love with World War 1 airplanes. In the spirit of our brand, these instruments are elegant, stylish, luxurious and immensely authentic. In fact, their development started when a large film studio ordered 21 full-size WW1 instrument panels. Authentic look was the primary objective and these instruments are no different.
When doing research we paid extreme attention to detail, as we always do. When designing and finishing the graphics, we made sure that every millimetre of each letter is precisely accurate, including all inaccuracies that occur in the real instruments. We only use top-quality wood and metal. The instrument are solid and heavy.
These panel will only be available online, until we find retailers, but at least until 15 August 2006. Until then – for the following one month - they will also be sold for promotional prices which are 20% lower! We are currently looking for retailers and distributors all over the world to sell these and other State-of-Art Models products.
