At the A.C. Aircraft Company, I transform ordinary aluminum beverage cans into unique model airplanes. Each hand-built aircraft is crafted from the beverage can of your choice.
Any of these custom built models would look great soaring from your eaves, or awaiting takeoff on your desk, and they make wonderful, unique gifts.

A.C. Aircraft Company models are designed and built for static display purposes only and should not be considered children's toys as they may have sharp edges and small pieces that could break off and be swallowed by small children.
We recommended your aircraft be protected from direct sunlight as much as possible to ensure the longevity of its brilliant colors. If displayed outside, it should be hung where only light to moderate breezes will spin the prop, and not where strong or gusty winds are encountered, which can damage the airplane.

The A.C. Aircraft Company is operated by Bill Waite of Oak Harbor, WA. After retiring from the Fire Service in 2004, he found he had a lot of spare time on his hands. One day he stumbled upon a few different plans for building aluminum can airplanes on the Internet, but was sure he could do better.
After perfecting his designs and modeling techniques, he began selling his models in early 2005. The A.C. (Aluminum Can) Aircraft Company now has a selection of over 21 different airplane models, made from virtually any of the standard 12 oz. aluminum cans.
