I built the Ercoupe about 6 years ago. I get MORE comments about the Ercoupe than any other plane I have. I love it. When it looked like JSM was out of business, I panicked and bought two Comanchees from Ebay.
JSM models are a little more difficult to build and they do force you to draw from previous experience, but you will learn more building a JSM kit that any other kit out there. But that doesn't mean that you have to be a building guru to build one. It just takes a little more thought, thats all.
I strongly recommend them to anyone that wants to take it up a notch. The wood is good, and the airplanes have very scale profiles.
You MUST take a look at Cubnut's Ercoupe !!!! You will be sold !!!!
