Thanks for the pic Paul.

Well, based on that ad, $125 for a basic glass/foam kit today would be an excellent value. $25 inflation sounds pretty good after 30 years.

At that price, I'd have to agree they would sell like pan cakes!

Chip, is the poll for these particular models due to availability of molds or plugs?

Yes that is correct Hobby Barn has the rights to these models. Bill told me that they had to pay Hanno for every plane they made. He then went on to say over its ten year life span, they made approx 5000 Curares. That is a huge number but back then sport flyers all had a pattern plane as well.

As far as the kit price I was just guessing but it will take actually making the first one this week to know exactley how much it will be.
