Ikon Kits
I just finished building an IKON N'WST Piper Tri-Pacer. The initial test flight and several more were this past Saturday, 22 March. I began it on 28 Dec 02. It was finished with cloth and dope and rib stitched etc. I could complain that the plans left a bit to the imagination but I thouroghly enjoyed the kit. Maybe it was the dope that I inhaled. I posted a few pictures in the photo gallery. Search for tri-pacer.
If your imagination is limited - your skills are equal to your imagination - and you want a plane that everyone else has............maybe a Top Flight kit is right for you. On the other hand, if you like to build airplanes the Ikon kits are builders kits that fly GREAT.
Challenge yourself. You may find yourself next scratch building that plane you always wanted but isn't available as a "shake-a-box" kit.
