Where can I get a giant t-28 kit
I am looking for a giant scale t-28 or giant scale corsair complete kit. Don't really want a top flight kit(already have the arf) but don't know who sells either kit with everything to complete the build(wood,plans,instructions) if anyone knows who sells complete kits please let me know.

Not surprised on the Iron Bay. They're really slow with any response. It may be a month before you hear anything. A lot of people have had bad experiences with them, but if you really want an old Byron kit you just have to put up with it. They will eventually respond though, at least that was my experience with them. I was going to buy that kit, but decided to go a different route due to the cost.

This may not be helpful, since these two aren't giant by most folks definition, but worth a look-see, if you're not already familiar with them. Vance Mosher's T-28 is avail. in kit form w/ a ton of accessories available, including a building CD. I have one of these kits waiting in the closet for it's turn. Dave Platt has short kits, but kit cutters can provide all the necessary wood pieces. I've seen both these T-28s at warbird meets and they are very, very impressive. Both are (only) 80 inch span. The one avail. from Bob Holman is much bigger but is from an era when stand way- off scale was the standard . www.vanvan.us/ , www.daveplattmodels.com The T-28 is truly an attention grabber, so I hope you can find one the size you're after.

It looks very good and would you say is the one box is shippable? Would you consider taking it to UPS store or is it just local pickup? Just not anywhere close to you anytime soon. Thanks Donzie

Call my good buddy Dino at http://meister-scale.com/Corsair/corsair.html. He sells a 100" wing span corsair kit. The T=28 has always been a dream plane of mine also but there aren't any kit's out there that can handle a Moki250 radial.
Maybe one day my wishes will come true and somebody will produce one like maybe CARF Models!!

Hi Greg-
Well you CAN put a Moki 150 in the Byron T-28-ask me how I know. TONS of work to modify the front end, but it will go. Having said that though, a nice Moki 250 size bird would be the bomb !
