Hello and welcome to our website!
My name is Harald
Müller and I’m the founder and CEO of MHM Scale Aircraft. I’m
excited that you’ve decided to spend some time with us. Chances are
you’re an aviation buff in general and a lover of giant scale model
airplanes made of metal in particular. You’ve come to the right place—we
are the specialists for unique model aircraft made of aluminum.
I’ve
been carrying the dream of building a metal model airplane around with me
for the better part of 20 years. My company specializes in the design and
construction of special order metal parts for TV sets and complex trade show
exhibition booths. Throughout my professional life I’ve been privileged
to have all the necessary tools and machinery at my disposal but I still
thought it was impossible to build an all aluminum model aircraft the way
I envisioned it—unless you intended to do it as a one-off project.
That, however, didn’t interest me at all; my goal has always been the
serial production of model aircraft made of metal.
Dreams, however, have
a habit of staying with you. After I learned how to design my model aircraft
on the computer with the help of a 3D CAD program, I figured out a way to
integrate our computerized machines such as laser- and water jet cutters
in the process of designing an all-aluminum model aircraft the way I really
wanted to build it. That’s how it all began in 2003. Four years later
we’d completed the prototype of our DHC-2 ‘Beaver’ in 40%
scale. The aircraft has even been flown on floats!
After extensive testing we have now started serial production, with four new models being built at our factory in the south of Berlin. The aircraft are for sale and can be outfitted with wheels, floats and/or ski. Even gadgets such as an on-board camera or a smoke system are possible. Maybe you’ll allow us to build one for you?
But the Beaver is not the only aircraft we’re
working on—development on other 40% scale, all-aluminum model aircraft
is underway and in full swing. We’re having a great time with it and
I hope you’ll be just as excited as we are.
Have fun touring our website,
which is chockfull with photos of the Beaver and information on the design
and construction of the aircraft. Please check back often for updates, and
if you should have any questions please feel free to contact me. I really
look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,
Harald Müller
