Duane,
I am still flying mine. What a plane! At our club's recent big bird fly-in the Simla was a big hit. Many questions about it. Several people wanted to know where to get one. I referred them to Jeff's web site ClassicRCHobby. I hope he will still produce kits.

That is so great to hear!! The Simla is quite elegant, graceful, and impressive in the air. You don't see too many "Big Bird" planes shaped like a pattern plane...particulalry a vintage pattern plane with its own historical story. The original Simla flew 47 years ago.

I'm sure Jeff will find a way to keep the Simla available down the road.
