Start Your Order

After we receive your order, we'll get back to you within 24 hours to discuss your project and custom design.

Custom Order Form

After our initial discussions, we will create your custom order form. This order form will capture all of the details you have specified and will include embedded photos and mockups for our artists to use during production. We will email the custom order form to you for your review and approval. Email us back with your approval or any changes and we welcome any additional photos to aid our replication. Once you approve the order form, we will begin production.

Production Begins 10 Weeks

Your custom model is hand-carved and molded from solid mahogany wood. We then move to the putty primer stage to get the shape exactly right. The paint process uses hand-painting, airbrushing, stencils, and in-house created decals to replicate the smallest details.

Post-Production Arrival

Once complete, we'll email photos for your final approval. This will allow you to review the finished product, making sure we got everything just right. Once approved, we apply a final coat of lacquer to protect the awesomeness.

Shipped! 10-14 Days 3-5 Days Rushed

After about 3 days the clear lacquer is dry. We then pack your model in a specially designed container for your aircraft type. Normal production orders ship from our factory to our distribution facility in Florida once a week. Once received in Florida, we forward the model to you via USPS Priority. Rush production orders ship to you directly from our factory.

Materials Used

We use only the finest kiln-dried solid mahogany (red lauan) wood, hand-carved by the world's greatest craftsmen with unprecedented precision and accuracy. Our artisans carve, mold, assemble, paint, and detail your briefing stick entirely by hand.

What Types of Airplanes Can You Make?

We can replicate any type of aircraft and any variant from any country. All of our mahogany wood custom aircraft products are made to order just for you. They are completely customized and personalized to your specifications.

Need It Quick?

We have a 6 week rush production service. After you approve the post-production digital photos of your completed model, expect about one additional week for us to finish the product in clear lacquer and deliver to you.

Where Are They Made?

Our production facility is located in the Philippines. Every custom product begins as a block of solid wood and is hand-carved from scratch, so we can make any size or scale.

Can I Personalize My Order?

Absolutely! That is another aspect that makes us unique, because we do not charge extra for customized or personalized details. We will put pilot and crew chief names below the canopies, we will add nose art, and we will personalize your stand.

Will I Get To Approve My Model?

Once your aircraft replica is complete, we will email multiple post-production digital photos for your final approval prior to shipping. This allows you to see the finished product to ensure that we got everything just right. These photos will clearly show the paint markings, ordnance, names, tail number and customized stand. Corrections are still possible at this time. Any change requests different from the approved order form, may incur an additional charge. Once the final photos are approved, we apply a final coat of lacquer to protect the model. Once the lacquer is applied, changes will not be possible.

Do They Come With a Warranty?

We use only the finest materials and paints giving us the ability to offer an exceptional warranty that our custom mahogany wood products will never crack, warp, yellow or fade. If you ever encounter these defects, we will replace your product or refund your payment guaranteed. We will also repair or replace any damage that occurs during shipment.

What is Your Refund and Return Policy?

All of our custom mahogany wood aircraft replicas come with our 100% Customer Satisfaction Guarantee.

AWESOME !!!

So for my home office , I decided to make or buy aircraft that I had flown in my career as a commercial pilot. My first one was from 40 yrs ago of course it was a commuter dissolved ages ago. They matched the details to a tee !! Then from another more recently dissolved airline perfectly. The details are awesome. If u want a high end replica of an aircraft, this is the company to use !!

MQ-9A

Purchased as a gift. Detail was fantastic. Great customer support and a great process of building a proof and getting verification before it is built and painted. Will definitely purchase another model. Build and shipping was faster than quoted and model arrived before Christmas.

Hawker 700

Just received the hawker 700 today. This model arrived before Christmas and is going to a longtime good friend that I used to fly with. He has many hours in a Hawker 700 and I thought this would look good on his shelf. The customer service throughout this process was impeccable. The quality and attention to detail is very impressive. Highly recommend this company !! Thank you! Steve C. Portland Oregon

T-28 Trojan: Yellow

In one word GREAT. MY COMPLAINT; is that I did not have anything ready to put on the stand. As yet I have not found anything that would describe this model as a. Gruman T- 28 , showing HP and other engine details. So if you have anything like that in a decal that I could apply to the stand, I would love to have it. Otherwise, I am perfectly happy with my model. CS Sylvia

Best Gift

Through Aviator Gear we found the perfect gift to celebrate our aviation freshman's first solo flight. The website made the shopping/ordering process a breeze and the email communication was excellent from start to finish. The Piper Archer model is a beautiful gift that my son will cherish for the rest of his life.

Fantastic F-15EX custom models

I have ordered 4 different models now from Aviator Gear. This time I received two F-15 EX models. I had them designed as they are flown on their first flight but I took the liberty to actually add weapons which they don’t get until after they are painted for the fleet. The artist at Aviator Gear doesn’t d a fantastic job on both models all the way down to each small detail on the weapons. Thank you Aviator Gear! Now to decide on my next patch or model….

Attention to detail and understanding could be better.

My overall experience with the staff at 'AVIATORGEAR' was very good. I have no complaints. However, I did feel that the detail on my aircraft did not completely meet my expectations. The model is very nice but, there was several iterations that had to be done on the model to get it to a point that was acceptable - and it still was not 100%. With each change, I was feeling like the builders were getting tired of working on the model. The final iteration was close enough and I accepted it for completion as it had been several months from my original order date. I did notice that there was, what appeared to be a broken part but, I thought that they would catch it prior to delivery. Sadly, when I received my model, the part was broken and it appears that it was left that way during final cleanup. I have ordered several models from various companies in the past. This company by far is better than most. Obviously, these models are not made in the USA so, there is a huge communication error. I sent pictures with each iteration and many of them were duplicates making me wonder if they were looked at them completely during the fabrication of the model. I can recommend this company because the staff is willing to work with you and listen to your issues. Be patient and be willing to send more pictures and explain things in a different manner each time. I believe that you will get a model that you will be happy to show and display.

Custom Piper model

Great experience. Great customer service. Worked with me till all the details I wanted were incorporated into the model. Even a final review of the finished product before it shipped. I can't provide a photo as this is a Christmas gift and is back in the box wrapped up. I did inspect the model and it matched the photos they sent me for final approval. Will definitely order future models. Great product and great experience.

5 F4U Corsairs Ordered by Our Family

It all started with my youngest son asking me if he could have the model of the F4U Corsair that his grandfather flew in WW II in the Pacific. Tommy Swayze was one of the youngest pilots in WW II, earning five battle stars with his first combat coming at the age of 18. My son had just named his first son after his grandfather. I looked at the bottom of the model, and it had a label from Aviator Gear. I had inherited the plane mode from my Dad when he died in 2015. I ordered Ryan a model last year, after customizing it with Dad's name & combat group insignia. I just received three more models for my two brothers & my oldest son. It will be a very special Christmas. Thanks to Eloise & all of the great artists at Aviator Gear. Totally first class! Bobby Swayze

JC-130B Catch A Falling Star

I was looking for a company that could repair my damaged JC-130B and Carlo explained that they don't repair, but I could get a replica made to detail as the orginal model. I am elated with the outstanding customer service provided by Carlo Luciano in helping me to be able to get a duplicate model of the first aircraft that I started my aircrew member career. I am amazed at the quality and detail of the model. True professional craftsmanship is evident in the production of the model. I highly recommend any former members of the 6594th Test Group, Hickam AFB, HI to purchase a model from AviatorGear.
