AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

DMI “Boy” – Danish model glider to build, 1946

Original Danish model kit “Boy”, produced by Dansk Modelflyve Industri (DMI). The model was designed in 1946 as an A1 class glider with a wingspan of about 70 cm.

The kit has survived in unglued form along with the original, extremely striking period box. Inside are factory-prepared wooden construction parts: wing ribs, fuselage and tailplane elements, structural strips, and other small components visible in the photos. The material intended for covering the model has also been preserved.

This is an interesting example of early post-war Danish aeromodelling – the kit is about 80 years old and, despite its age, has never been built.

Manufacturer: Dansk Modelflyve Industri – DMI
Model: Boy
Type: model glider for amateur construction
Country: Denmark
Design: 1946
Ready-model wingspan: approx. 70 cm
Material: wood, paper
Packaging: original

The kit is sold exactly with the elements shown in the photos. The original building instructions/plan are missing. Due to the lack of instructions and the age of the kit, I do not guarantee its 100-percent completeness. The wooden elements are in very good condition for their age. The original cardboard box shows clear signs of storage, wear, discoloration, and localized damage – all visible in the photographs.
