We still have 3 people building aircraft in our little club of 16. In the winter of 13/14 I built a 132" Turbo Beaver, my largest plane to date. I spent 1000hrs plus from scratch with a set of blown up Mr Aerodesign plans. Last year I managed to build one little 60" Highlander Superstol, and restore a GP 540 Edge back to flying consition. This winter plans are to build a 96" Radial Otter. The other two builders have a pair of 81" Mosquitos, a Dehavilland Fox Moth and a Zenith 700 in the works.
I received a lovely set of plans for a Norseman, 84 1/2" ws, very detailed including scale 40" floats. flytreetimes
