Description

Airplane Weathervanes: This E-3 Sentry AWACS Weathervane is made of 14 gauge steel. The AWACS (airborne warning and control system) Airplane Weathervane is laser cut eliminating any unsightly welding producing a more attractive weathervane. Unlike some other brands that just show a silhouette, the AWACS Weathervane has laser cuts in strategic places adding dimension, style and detail to the weathervane.

The photograph does not do justice to the beautiful, warm, brown finish. Each weathervane goes through 3-step coating process.

Zinc chromate plating is applied to the base metal for better adhesion, durability and rust prevention.
An attractive antique copper vein powder coat is baked on the surface.
A clear powder coat is then applied to protect against UV rays to help prevent fading and providing a durable and scratch resistant product.

The weathervane arrives with the airplane figure, sealed ball bearing windcups allowing the windcups to spin with the lightest breeze, directionals (about 2 ¾" high), and your choice of mount. The AWACS figure measures about 19" long by 4 ½" high. This weathervane has a 1-year manufacturer’s warranty on the finish and a lifetime warranty on all workmanship. Select the mounting choice from the drop down menu.

Pole: about a 60" pole that slides into the ground.
Roof: for peaked roof tops with about a 12" rod.
Deck: mounts horizontally with a 4"x4" base and about a 12“ rod.
Post: mounts vertically with a 4"x4" base and about a 12" rod.

This weather vane arrived and I immediately put it together (very simple) and posted it on a pole outside of my home. It is such a beautiful testament to a history of sacrifices and success in defending the United States and her allies! I love it and highly recommend it!!

The AWACS weathervane looks fantastic outside my son's home! It was easy to assemble, is of excellent quality, and arrived in perfect condition exactly as promised. The weathervane was a retirement gift for my USAF son who was an AWACS pilot. What a perfect find - he loves it!

Excellent quality and appearance Well packaged Arrived when promised None!
