Default RE: first war bird, how to decide?

I agree David, Those were the ones I was trying to stay away from, all of them in the list for various reasons.
ZAROLI...... Man they are so dam big!!! didn't want to go that big yet. I have looked em over and there is no doubt about the qualityof their plans but don't I have to find someone to cut it and then locate the glass parts i.e. cowls, canopys, and pants or spats? In my researce I have not found all this available at a one stop shop with Zarilo plans. If this is available I might look at Nick's plans again. any info to the contary would be very welcome.

I did go to Bob Holman's site and found this very thing. plans, glass accessories, and laser cut wood all in the range of $200 to $250 sold complete or seperate. the planes look good, spacificaly the Brian Taylor planes. Has anyone delt with or built and flown one of these babys? http://www.bhplans.com/index.htm see scale plans. Size is close to right and engine size is in line with what I'm looking for.

Thank you Tom C "you da man"

If I could find the plans and the cutter at the same location that would kit it for me to my desired size I could and would come up with the cowl and canopy and spats. I have the tecknowledgy to build these parts at any size and to scale with documentation. Didn't start out wanting to put this much effort into it. but If I must. NOW, Will cutters resize plans and cut to sute? anyone know?
