RE: Hostetler 33% Decathlon

Marcus,

RE: Hostetler 33% Decathlon

RE: Hostetler 33% Decathlon

Marcus,
I have been throwing around the idea of scaping the WH SD and going with one of your planes. With the scale changes I am almost doing my own design. But if you are thinking about a 35%...

RE: Hostetler 33% Decathlon

Well I plan on building more than one SD myself, and Marcus has a very good looking product. If I wasn't in the middlle of my chances on the WH SD, a kit from Marcus would be very high on the list. I...

RE: Hostetler 33% Decathlon

I did come across a door on one particular SD I would not have thought would have one, Greg Koontz's SD that is used for his shows. So one would think the door is quite reliable and remain closed...

RE: Hostetler 33% Decathlon

In my researching the Decathlon/Citabria I have not seen the door on many planes, but in the articles it has been said the addition of side door is a god send. As one person mentioned the difficulty...

RE: Hostetler 33% Decathlon

The frame has not changed for some years. A few exterior changes here and there depending on the model, but one can use the main outline.
The CD is on the way.

RE: Decathlon

I have the Wendell Hosetler Super Decathlon plans, not a scale aircraft plan but a good flyer. I prefer something more scale so I am in the revising stage right now. If a true scale build is what you...
