A helicopter is a type of aircraft that has rotary wings. The engine
causes the long slender wings, called rotors, at the top of the
helicopter to rotate, providing lift and allowing the helicopter to fly.
Compared to aircraft with fixed wings, helicopters are slow and get
poor mileage so they don't fly long continuous distances. But they can
take off and land in narrow places because they have the unique ability
to move up and down vertically, as well as fly in reverse, sideways and
hover. For these reasons, helicopters have been put to use in many ways,
such as for transporting cargo, conducting rescue operations, and for
industrial aviation. This paper-craft helicopter is a standard
single-rotor type.

Articulated Ladder Truck
Unlike a straight ladder, the Skyarm ladder articulates in several
places, making it possible to avoid utility wires and other obstacles
encountered during firefighting and rescue work. By attaching a fixed
waterway to the ladder sections, a large volume of water can be deployed
quickly and accurately. The Skyarm Sigma features a set of push-button
jacks that can be extended to support the weight of the truck and
maintain a stable, perpendicular platform, while the three-section
telescop-ing ladder can play a role in rescue situations that require
considerable horizontal reach. Because the floor of the platform basket
remains horizontal, aerial operations can be carried out with added
safely.

Chemical Fire Engine
Chemical fire engines are primarily used for fighting liquid fuel or
chemical fires at oil refineries or airports, where water would fan the
flames. A chemical fire engine can spray fire-extinguishing foam or dry
chemical powder, which extinguish the fire by smothering. The vehicles
are often equipped with a water tank and a separate tank for the fire
extinguishing chemicals. In addition to fire stations, these
special-ized fire trucks are often on standby to enable rapid response
at chemical plants and other potential hazardous sites.The foam tender
is a specialized chemical fire engine equipped with a water cannon that
can be maneuvered via an electronic remote control and a hose car to
provide access to tight areas, making it a highly flexible fire-fighting
unit.

Sailship:Cutty Sark
This is a tea-clipper built by Scot and Linton Co. of England in 1869.
The Cutty Sark is the only extant tea-clipper. A tea clipper means a
high speed sailing ship that transported tea from China to Europe, and
all ships competed the transportation speed. The Cutty Sark was at its
full blast to crown the end of the era of sailing ships with perfection
in those days, but as the Suez Canal was completed and steamboats have
emerged, the change of times forced tea clippers to retire. The Cutty
Sark was sold to Portugal at one time, but returned to England in 1922,
and preserved and exhibited along the Thames since 1954. It was burnt
down by fire during the restoration work on decrepitude caused by long
open-air exhibition, but since most of the parts had been retained in
other locations, the restoration work is still in progress today.

Mercedes Benz 500K
The K Series was born as the highest class touring car to replace the
traditional S/SS series.First, Model 380K was introduced in 1933, and as
early as in the next year, 1934, the 500K Series that had evolved from
the 380K replaced it. Conventionally, the letter K represented “Kurz”
(short), but the letter K in the new series means Kompressor (with a
compressor). It usually exerted 100PS at the maximum, but when the
compressor actuated, it achieved 160PS together with a mechanical sound
called “a war cry of Walkure” and was able to drive the body that weighs
about 2.2t up to 160km/h.The chassis was equipped with the 4W
independent drives and 4W hydraulic brakes with a servo, which were well
ahead of its time. In those days, it had been a tradition to consign
the bodies of high class cars to noted coach builders, but Mercedes Benz
did not choose so but conducted equally brilliant and scrupulous coach
work at its own plant in Sindelfingen.The bodies came with Cabriolet A, B
and C and Limousine. The 500K in an elegant 1935 body was a model
called special roadster. The production volume is said to be 25. Data:
5,018cm3 water-cooled 8-cylinder OHV super-charged engine, producing
100PS/160PS; top speed 160km/h

MG TC Midget
In 1945, immediately after the end of WWII, MG started production of TC
Midget in the UK. While TC Midget followed suit to the pre-war TB
mechanically, it succeeded to the traditions of MG Midget with the
ladder-shaped frame, oblong leaf springs, thin 4.50-19 tires, engine
positioned behind the front wheel shaft, low and long hood, cockpit in
front of the rear axle, flowing fender that covered 19-inch tires, etc.
The only difference was a slight increase in the body width, and the
driving posture was also in the pre-war vintage style. One of its
attractions was high maneuverability that matched the taste of the
British people who prefer open air. The historical significance of such
TC Midget is not the fact that it is a sports car born in the
devastated state of mid-war and post-war periods but the fact that the
American soldiers who occupied Europe made the first contact with a
sports car from an unknown world, experienced the joy of motor sports
and open air, became fascinated by it and brought many TC cars to the
US, which instantly heightened the fame of MG. It is no exaggeration to
say that the motor sports in the US could not have been possible without
the influence of TC. The 1948 TC Midget that is the model of this paper
craft is the model in which the dashboard is covered with the same
cloth as the interior and the steering wheel is brown, that were the
only changes in the life of TC.Data: 1,250cm3 water-cooled 4-cylinder
OHV engine, producing 54HP; top-speed 75mph

Ford Convertible Cabriolet
Convertible Cabriolet. As the name implies, it is a convertible model
of a roofless car when the top is folded down and a coupe when the top
is put up. It accommodates the driver and 2 passengers in the front
seat and 3 in the rear seat (storage type: rumble seat). When the top
is folded down, it is neatly stored inside the body. This style is
attractive and this model is said to be the best among all other Ford
models. This model was the first to adapt the steel disc wheels to
replace the conventional spoke wheel.
The style of Convertible Cabriolet of the Ford 68 series in 1963 caught
on popularity, but what is more interesting is the side valve (SV) type
V8 engine. In sales competition with Chevrolet, Ford adapted a V8
engine to popular cars in competition with the 6 cylinder engine of
Chevrolet. The major characteristic of this engine is smoothness of
revolution. Compared to a 4 cylinder engine, the 6 cylinder engine had a
better balance. To compete against this advantage, the V8 engine of
Ford offered smoothness like an electric motor.
American devotees regard this SV type V8 engine as the secret (true)
best seller car of Henry Ford and hold it dear to their hearts by
calling it the “EARLY FORD V8”.
Data: Water cooled engine, V type side valve, 8 cylinders, displacement
3,621m3, 85HP

Toy Train
"Toy Train" is the nickname for the locomotives that travel the
Darjeeling Himalayan Railway in India. The locomotives are loved for
their cute, toy-like appearance, and the oldest one of them has been
running for as many as 110 years. Due to deterioration, most of the
locomotives now run on diesel, but some are still powered by steam
engines. The Darjeeling Himalayan Railway, as its name suggests, runs
through the mountains in the Darjeeling area, shipping tea or
transporting passengers to cooler climates. The train is currently
registered as a World Heritage Site.

Paddle Steamer (Sidewheeler)
A paddle steamer is a boat with paddle wheels on the sides that are
turned by a steam engine, propelling the boat forward. A paddle steamer
on the ocean or a river is quite an impressive site, with its paddle
wheels turning away and black smoke puffing out of its large chimney. In
the old days, boats needed people to make them move through the water,
or sails, which require technical operation, but in the latter half of
the 18th century when the steam engine was utilized, the paddle steamer
was developed. In the mid-19th century, with the improvement of the
steam engine, and utilization of the screw propeller, the number of
paddle steamers being produced began to drop. There are two types of
paddle steamers: sidewheelers, which have paddle wheels on both sides,
and sternwheelers, which have a single wheel at the back. This paper
craft model is based on the sidewheeler type.
