Default RE: Balsa USA 1/4 scale Fokker DVII from plans

I sent an e-mail to Dave Lewis and he confimered the sheets are $3 a pop.

I believe the only thing I will need is the ribs but I will wait until I receive the plans. He said they sell a wing rib kit for $54. I hate to buy a whole kit when I will not use 50% or more of it.

He also reminded me they are a kit manufacturer not a plans service. I fully understand their position and appreciate it.

Anyhow I plan on laminating all the tail surfaces or even forming them from aluminum tubing. I will experiment with both.

The DRI was a nice simple throw together kit build. This one needs to keep me busy a while.
Later!!
