This is the Guillow’s Fokker DR1 Triplane model kit, a balsa wood airplane kit that builds into a detailed scale replica. It includes printed or laser-cut balsa sheets, plans, and the materials to assemble and, on flying models, cover the airframe.
Building it is a hands-on project for hobbyists and older kids — cutting, gluing, and finishing the balsa frame over an evening or several sessions. The finished model can be displayed on a stand or, for flying kits, flown as a rubber-powered or free-flight plane.
Guillow’s (Paul K. Guillow, Inc.) has been making balsa wood airplane kits in Wakefield, Massachusetts since 1926.
