I made copies of the plans and ribs this time for future builds. I really miss the days of going to the hobby shop (Ours was Red Baron Hobbies) and they would take the kit down from the shelf and let you look through the manuals and kit. Could even buy Monokote by the foot.
My first kit was the Wanderer glider
Its funny how most of the guys at our club have never seen/built a plane from sticks and they think the FOAM ARFs actually fly good, LOL

I am looking to start the Eaglet this weekend!

The cool thing about the Eaglet and Jr Tiger......."Made in Chicago, IL USA"
I remember those days. They are now the "good ol' days"
