Hightlights:

HA0206 – SBD-3 Dauntless 1/32 Die Cast Model
• This limited edition model is a replica of the Dauntless flown by Lt.(jg) William E. Hall during the Battle of the Coral Sea. For his actions during that battle, Hall received the Medal of Honor. His citation reads:

For extreme courage and conspicuous heroism in combat above and beyond the call of duty as pilot of a scouting plane in action against enemy Japanese forces in the Coral Sea on 7 and 8 May 1942. In a resolute and determined attack on 7 May, Lt. (j.g.) Hall dived his plane at an enemy Japanese aircraft carrier, contributing materially to the destruction of that vessel. On 8 May, facing heavy and fierce fighter opposition, he again displayed extraordinary skill as an airman and the aggressive spirit of a fighter in repeated and effectively executed counterattacks against a superior number of enemy planes in which 3 enemy aircraft were destroyed. Though seriously wounded in this engagement, Lt. (j.g.) Hall, maintaining the fearless and indomitable tactics pursued throughout these actions, succeeded in landing his plane safe.

HA9008 – Ju 52/3m “Immelman II” 1/144 Die Cast Model
• Named after WWI pilot Max Immelman, D-2600 was Hitler’s primary aircraft.
 
HA3510 – F/A-18C Hornet 1/72 Die Cast Model
• Celebrating the centennial of naval aviation in 2011, this F/A-18C from VFA-122 “Flying Eagles” was painted in a commemorative paint scheme. The markings represent those of VF-17’s F-6F Hellcat Carrier Group 17 (CVG-17) from the USS Hornet (CV-12) in 1944-45.
