Mont Blanc

The Airways or Mont Blanc as it was more commonly known was a thirties ride. The ride had two large hills and the cars were supported at the end of arms and able to swing out. The ride gave a fast and exhilarating ride. The model has a four wheel centre truck and uses a similar simple and inexpensive drive mechanism to the Ark.

The design can also be built in 1/16th scale and I can provide one additional drawing to complement the 1/24th scale drawings which the builder scales up to suit.

In 1/24th scale the model is nearly 690mm (27”) x 800mm (32”).
