Default RE: Looking for Pica Models Web Site


ORIGINAL: NCIS

Hi,

I build giant scale WWII Warbirds and want a 1/5 or larger Pica P-40. Does anyone know how to get to their Web Site or e-mail address? I've been wanting to build this plane but can't find Pica Models. I saw an eigthy something inch winspan partially built Pica kit for sale but it was in Florida and I want to start with a NIB kit so I can make it to true scale after a particular aircraft.

Please respond, Thanks,

Gibbs
Gibbs,

Pica closed their doors a few years ago, and their copyrights and designs have been sold to Cox (part of the Estes group) Cox is now offering the WACO UMF in both 1/5th and 1/6th scale. They also offer the T-28, and I believe the Duelist. Sadly, all these are only offered in ARF format. No kits. As for the warbirds, hopefully you can post this request in bot the Vintage, and Antique forum, as well as the Warbird forum. Maybe some kind soul will have a set of plans that he will copy for you. Best of luck,

You will notice that I called the WACO's UMF's. They have the wrong cowl to be YMF's.
