I know but the aircraft I posted above is not the Condor.

Nope, 'tis the one-off Boeing Model 226 executive transport for Standard Oil of California.
It was the second to the last of the first batch of 12 80As, but was highly modified for its
new role under Memo 2-310, delivered on Dec. 20, 1930.

Right,,, I'm just saying a Condor kit is out there for those interested in this era.
Though is box scale kit.

Maybe some predecessor to de Havilland Canada could make Couzinet bush planes.

I'm still waiting for Brian to comment on the spats on the first Couzinet.  Maybe I need to tempt him with the fact thane can get a kit of it:
