The Revell Classics Line is a limited re-issue of select model kits from the 1950s/60s or 70s. In order to ensure that this model kit resembles the original product as closely as possible, the packaging was made true-to-style using the previous original illustration as well as original decals. The construction manual in multiple languages contains detailed assembly instructions. This model kit was produced using the original mold that was manufactured more than 30 or 40 years ago. Insignificant deviations from the original model kit (formation of burrs or slightly imperfect fit) can be attributed to the fact that the mold was not used for a long period of time.
The Twin Otter is a very versatile aircraft that can be used on wheels, skids or floats for transport, reconnaissance or rescue missions. In November 1964 building commenced on an initial 5 aircraft and on 20th May 1965 the first Twin Otter made its maiden flight. Production of the 100 series started in May 1966. 115 machines were built, until they were superseded by the 200 series with an extended forward cone. Early in 1969 the improved 300 series went into production. These machines had 652 hp P6A-27 engines, which increased the gross weight to a maximum of 5670 kg.
