The Noorduyn Norseman has a long history as a utility in over 18 countries around the world. From the parched of Australia to the rugged wilderness of Northern Canada, the Norseman is a well respected aircraft. First produced in 1936, and in production for over 20 years, it was the only aircraft produced by Noorduyn Aviation. It was designed in Montreal as a bush plane by Dutch-born Robert Noorduyn. The Norseman could be quickly converted to skis, floats or wheels for use in a variety of conditions. This kit contains parts and decals for the civilian Northway Aviation and the unusual Israeli Air Force variation. Please note that the civilian version uses the three bladed propeller and the short exhaust, while the military version uses the two bladed propeller and the long exhaust.
