Models Page
Please Note: SAAM has an extensive models collection and due to storage and display limitations, we have to be selective about models we accept in the future. Our highest priority is for high quality RAAF models in 1/48 scale, so that we can add to our RAAF models collection, but we will accept other high quality models if they fit our displays. If you are looking to donate models, please contact us.
Also Please Note: We have recently taken possession of some 200 high quality models in recent weeks, being the collection of one of our members. This page is about to undergo maintenance and is subject to change.

Cabinet 1 - RAAF Types
Our intention with this cabinet is to eventually display a 1:48 Scale model of all Aircraft Types flown by the RAAF. Keen observers may notice some models with RAF ID numbers, which is appropriate as some of the types were flown by the RAAF but retained their RAF IDs in service. If you have a high quality 1:48 scale model of a type we do not have, and you are willing to donate it, please contact us.
