RE: moonraker trainer

Balsa USA has reintroduced a Moonraker sport plane. Not sure if that is the one you are looking for. Check out their website.

RE: Picked up a few planes need id on one

It's an old Pilot 40 size Super Decathlon. I know this because I just picked up one last night from a friend. They are very scale and quite rare nowadays. Mine is not covered and is missing the cowl...
