They do make the Commander 40 which is the 40-sized pattern foamie. I think it's basically a foam version of the TaiJi (sp?) wood .40 pattern plane.
I'm going to think about either a .40 to .50 plane for the next few months. The Monolog 70 is on the short list. I really don't want to spend the $ on something real nice like a Sebart Wind 50 now, too much risk of losing it at our crappy field.
