Default RE: B-17 ID Question

Looks like an American Eagle.(www.flyrcmodels.com). Wing Mfg. (wwww.wingmfg.com) models has a 96" ws and it's definately NOT a "WingSpan Models" (www.wingspanmodels.com), they have a 1/6th, 1/9th and 1/12th B17 and have only been in business for about 1 yr. Their 1/9th is 139" ws. Ziroli doesn't have a B17 in his plans. Don Smith plans has a 138" ws 1/9th also. I recall American Eagle having one aboutt that size.

AmericanEagle is still in business, it was just baught out by another party. I don't know his name or number but if you do a littl e more research on that one you will find what you are looking for I am sure.

I am currently building the WinsSpan Models 1/9th scale and the Don Smith 1/9th Scale B17's.
