    Bachmann Mini-Planes were sold in the 1970s. They were sort of an airplane versions of Matchbox cars although these were made out of plastic. As they were plastic they were very fragile. And as they were very fragile this one lost its landing wheels. Still as the box says they were highly detailed.
    The actual plane first started flying in 1926 and were one of the earliest airliners. It was an adventure to take one of these across the US It required a combination of plane and train rides.
    199 were built and 100 airlines used them. The planes changed hands several times so it wasn't 100 airlines at the same time.
