J&M Glasscraft Designs Going To Production

Absolutely thrilled to have acquired five different models from John Fotiu at J&M Glasscraft. John is a long time friend and a true artisan and innovator. His designs are smaller, 1/2a and 1/4a sized high performance models now converted to electric. Several of the designs were developed in conjunction with Dr. Keith Shaw who is truly another modeling legend.

Fun-x – 1/2 A sized version of the legendary phoenix pattern airplane
Cheap Thrills – a P51 like 1/2 A racer
Mirage – a true delta wing 1/2 A size speed demon
Caudron – 1/4 A sized vintage French raceplane – Thompson Trophy winner
Shoestring – 1/4 A sized formula one racer

Shop & Warehouse

We’re disappointed with the slow downs due to covid19 but thrilled with the progress we’re making in the meanwhile.

We’ve taken the break to finish our “hot box” oven for curing some high end resins – while we wait for the resin distributors to start up again.

Test Tube Pouring Resin

We’ve decided to keep the concept of the original Aero Composites logo which was a hand drawn graphic. We don’t know who originally drew it but the idea was brilliant. Now digitized, vectorized, and modernized.
