The Mister Mulligan, with a 17.5" wingspan, is a top-tier free-flight kit from Dumas's walnut scale series, celebrating the legendary air racer with precision and style. Complete with hand-selected balsa, vacuum-moulded parts, colourful decals, and a 5" prop with F.A.I. Tan II rubber, it's a rewarding build for modellers of all levels.
A brief history of the model:
Mister Mulligan, officially the Howard DGA-6, was a revolutionary 1930s racing aircraft designed by Ben and Maxine Howard. It became the only aircraft ever to win both the Bendix and Thompson Trophies in the same year (1935), showcasing not just speed but long-range efficiency — a rare combination at the time. Its clean, high-wing monoplane design and powerful radial engine made it a standout in the golden age of air racing.
