The Goldberg Chipmunk is a great looking and great flying airplane, I think Dave Patrick designed it. I have also heard bad things about the Lanier produced kits but now that GP has bought them out, hopfully quality will improve. My advice? I say go with the Super Sportster. I've built 3 so far (two .40s and one .60) They are a lot of fun to build and they fly very well. If your leaning towards 3D, neither plane is the right choice. Nice job on the Super Hots! Your right, why would Midwest stop making such a cool plane? I don't get it!!
