Thanks for the reply. I'll let him know.

If he decides to sell, you all will be the first ones to know about it. I'd have to do an inventory on the parts to ensure that the kit is complete...

RE: Old Biplane Flight

I think it should be fine then. He has had it hanging in his store as a display and he is an excellent model builder. He has another Smith NIB but he wants to fly while he builds it.

RE: Good first biplane?

If you are looking at building a kit, then a SIG Smith Miniplane is a decent one to fly.  A good recommendation is to add shear webbing into the wings.
