Some time ago in the RCM and Scale Modeler, Plans were offered by Bill Effinger, Can anyone tell me an address where I can still order this plans. I read somewhere that his widow still sells them.
Thanks

This is our correct web site with most of the designs already in the site. I have been very busy of late and not quite finished the listing. Any design of Bill's you don't find easily, ask in an email to [email protected] which is the actual web site containing the Effinger Designs section. I am located in Houston.

RE: Bill Effinger PLans
If you order from this company, be prepared to wait a looooong time. I ordered plans. a laser cut short kit and cowling for a 1/3 scale plane. I was told 4 to 6 weeks for wood and cowling. The plans I got were sent pretty quicklyI got them within 10 days of ordering. The laser cut wood kit took 4 months with broken promises and weak excuses.
After 7 months of waiting, I still don't have the cowling. More broken promises and weak excuses. Supposedly the cowling is by "Precision Fiberglass", in Tennessee. I wish I had known it was going to be this way. I will cut my own parts by hand next time. Sigh.

Some how I missed you post at the time you posted it. Thanks for the information. I will order several of Bill's plans. I have built several of his design and look forward to building more. Been in the hobby since 1948
