Guillow's Stearman PT-17 Help
Hello RCU Brain-trust
I hope this is a satisfactory place to post this. I have a small problem with a recent purchase I made at an estate sale. I bought two Stearman PT-17 kits. The Guillow's 28" U/C kit and the 1/3 scale Balsa USA Stearman PT-17 A true monster of a kit. Basically these two are polar opposites on the model spectrum. The 1/3 scale kit is complete, I did an inventory of the boxes when I got it home, I could not help but fondle all the contents. LOL However, the Guillow's kit is missing the all too crucial plans set. I bought it anyway figuring I could prolly find a set on Outerzone UK. Sadly, I was wrong, no joy there.
My question is: Does anyone know where I can find a good used set or maybe a good quality scan, somewhere? Willing to pay of course. I have not made the effort to contact Guillow's to see if they can help, but I prolly will just to cover that base.
Peace, Wolf

Guillows is a great company contact them and I am sure they would help you with a plan set and instructions. I did this with a Aeronca DC -65 and enlarged the plans to 1/5 scale.AJ
