Default Does anybody recognize this plane?
This is in the local Craigslist for $50.



Does anybody recognize it? Worth the effort to restore? It looks like an ARF, judging from the cowl attachment.

Thanks,

Mark

It looks like a SIG Kougar.

It's a Sig Kougar and it looks like it has a OS FSR engine. If the engine turns and has compression, it's well worth $50, at least to someone like me who loves and has a Kougar with an OS 50 FSR.

I owned several of these, they are fun and fast but watch the speed on landings.

Part of the fun of a Kougar is the landing. You can bring it in slow or you can bring it in hot. The plane just settles in no matter what speed you bring it in at.
