Went the same place as plans, builders, sanders, painters, hobbyshop engineers. How many kits are manufactured now....a few BVM, Avonds..not many. Everyone gets a mostly build airplane out of the box, and assembles it. Some guys even take a look at how they were built and "fix" Chinese design flaws...even on the "premium" kits. We dont have builders any more and thus fewer and fewer experts. Want to experience a great thrill...get a Avonds F-16 and build it less than 20#, fly it on a small motor...it is a great flying jet. Want to experience the ultimate...build an Avonds Fuga. Smell glue again, see balsa dust and experience the thrill of real modelling.
