Not a Cessna 140 ! But do have plans for a 180 by sterling. I think Jetco also has plans for a 180 as well. These ( Jetco and Sterling ) are .049 to .10 size. Let me know if interested. [email protected]/

Default Different Cessna

It isn't the one mentioned, but how about a Cessna Bird-Dog semi-kit. Near copy of the kit produced by Berkeley in the 1950's, for 049 to .099 with 1,2,3 channel, or electric. Span 36".

Default Cessna 140

Bob Holman sells a Brian Taylor Cessna 120 plan/semi-kit. i think this is about 56" in span. "Vintage R/C Plans" sells Sid Morgan's C-140 drawing in two sizes, 32" and 64" last I noticed.

Default Bob Holman Plans

www.bhplans.com - - - if you cannot locate the Brian Taylor plan, not to worry, Bob's web sit illustrates a small sample of what's available in his catalog....

You are partly incorrect.

Bob Holman does not have a full nor semi-kit available on the Cessna 120. He does have parts and plans available for such.

Bob let off the commercial end for this project to Kit Cutters Inc. of Huntington Beach. You need to contact them as to availibility.

Thanks, I went to Kit Cutters and they do have a 140! I can still get the glass cowl from Holman he has a couple on the shelf. Thanks again for everyone's help. Skip.

There used to be a person making a 1/4 scale C-120 kit. I actually have one unbuilt around here somewhere. I can't remember who made it though. I'll look around. I bought it in a little hobby shop outside of Denver. I had never seen one before and since I own a full size 120 I thought it would be neat to have a scale model as well. It was an expensive kit. I've had it for about 3 years now and have never seen another one like it.
