I do know there are some still out there, but a limited selection. Going forward the trend seems they may disappear? ESM seems to be disappearing. Century models I've been warned about. Byron, and yellow are gone.

So is foam the new standard? They are getting up into the 70" wingspan.

Do you guys eventually see warbird events allowing foam models to fly?

Im considering a larger 60" foam model made of EPO, which I would glass and paint. More work than most wood arfs.

Or am I missing something?

Thanks
