Default *****cat

I was recently looking at a web site and the author was talking about a sailplane for beginners called "*****cat". Does anyone know where this is sold?

The sailplane name starts with a P and a u and a s and a s and a y cat.

That was an old Bob Martin Models kit. I think you're out of luck unless you can find an old stock. The company is gone as far as I know.

Default *****cat 2M

I picked up a *****cat 2M (new, unbuilt kit) at an auction a few months ago. It seems to be a glider similar to a Gentle Lady and other polyhedral, built-up gliders. I am now flying a 2M Spirit and just finishing construction of a Gnome I picked up at the same auction. I doubt I will get around to building it anytime soon so if you are interested in buying it let me know.

Default If you do a search on Ebay ...

You will find a Bob Martin's Bobcat up for sail ... this is the same plane as the Pussiecat except the wing is a dihedral setup with ailerons ... and is a decent flying aileron trainer in a 2m span.

I went to the TowerHobbies website and did a search on Bobcat. What came up was a Dynaflite 2M. Did Dynaflite buy out the Bob Marlin company?
