Disney PLANES: What Dusty Crophopper Looks Like in Real Life
“Sergio” has found a photo of the real life Dusty. A painted Cessna 188.
As you can see, they definitely shortened him …
I think animation design-wise, they make him more of an underdog by making him seem smaller/shorter … diecast wise, it’s a bonus as they save on weight and materials.
Thanks for the fun pic, “Sergio!”
You can read all about the scale/size of Dusty here.

the tail even says disney…nice marketing
I get it now. This is the Planes version of the Agents on a Mission vehicles from a couple years ago. I thought some guy just had a plane that looked like Dusty or vice-versa.
Photoshop?
So what is this real Dusty?
Did Disney have this done or did they copy this real plane?
Where is it? A museum?
Enquiring minds want to know.
That is rediculously close
