You never really own a Replica Hangar model  –  you merely look after it for the next generation”

Replica Hangar is a newly launched, personalized boutique store catering more directly to the private aircraft owner.  Many commercial or well-known private aircraft types are easy to source online or even directly from model shops but generally they are mass produced, off the shelf, plastic or diecast versions manufactured in their millions and more likely than not, made in China. They are a mere cold and cheap copy and without life or soul!

What these mass or volume producers cannot easily do is to make one off, bespoke or very limited production runs of models desired and made to the exacting specifications of buyers or owners as this requires a totally different mindset and approach.  This type of “one to one ” business requires dedicated specialization, attention to minute detail and even more importantly – to be able to give the customer the opportunity of direct dialogue with the manufacturer from the beginning and to the end of the production process.  This process and experience separates us from the rest!

The above is now exactly where Replica Hangar comes into play by offering custom made airplane and helicopter, quality precision wooden and resin collectible models direct from our own factory thereby enabling the most competitive prices combined with attention to detail. If you don’t find it on our website – we can make it!

 

Through exacting production methods and tight Quality Control procedures the detail and accuracy of your model is guaranteed from start to finish. These museum quality customised collectables are Ideal for pilots, airlines, corporations, birthdays or Christmas gifts, presentations, collector’s items, desktops, showcases, museums, flying schools, reception areas, offices and many aviation or aerospace related locations.

Handcrafted Hand- Finished Models

The majority of models shown on our website have been hand carved in Lauan or Meranti (known commonly as Philippine Mahogany) solid kiln dried wood or in solid cast resin and hand painted by our own highly talented master craftsmen. The model you receive will be identical in looks and quality to those you see on our website.

Authentic Fine Detail

Unfortunately, even a photo cannot fully bring out or show what you will see or feel in real life once you receive your model. There is no substitute for a custom bespoke hand made and hand finished model that captures the exactness, looks and flare of the original aircraft.

Built to last

These models will last for generations to come and will become family heirlooms that will be cherished by generations to come You never really own one of our models  – you merely “pass it on to the next generation”.
