100+ inch de Haviland Mosquito plans
Gents,
I'm looking for plans and short kit for a GS Mossi. the Brian Taylor plans go to 81 inches (i think) but I'm looking to use twin DLE55's for power (thats whats on the shelf looking for a plane).
I don't mind composite but a three piece wing is essential for transportation. any help would be greatly appreciated!

I have the Mick Reeves 100 inch semi kit, check out his web site www.mickreevesmodels.co.uk for info. V nice quality glass parts, a couple of dle 20's will power mine. You will need the fibreclassics 3.8 m mossie for your 55's.

Don Smith has plans for a 108" mossie and I know there are some Taylor /Holman mossie plans at 124". I have a short kit for the Don Smith 108" mossie I plan to build this winter. It will have G-38's on it. The Tayloy/Holman would use 45's.

I'm still looking... I chatted with Don Smith today and learned that he doesn't have readily available parts for a larger size Mossie... He recommended FighterAces in the UK but they're in the UK (I was hoping to find someone relatively closer for help with this).
I've got dual DLE55's so I'm thinking the plane would have to be in the 120+ inch wing span to accomadate those engines... If you know someone with the plans and short kit, I'd be very interested in details...
thanks
