Jack,

I would be more than happy to accommodate you with a set of plans and the instruction booklet. I also have an orignal price sheet / show handout!

The plans are one sheet only, with the main goal to build the wing. The former locations are shown for the fuselage. The plans and assembly booklet make reference to both the fabric and metal wing versions. The different empennage shapes for various versions are also shown in phantom on the plans. The detail of the single strut for metal wing and dual strut for fabric wing are shown. The fuse windows are left for the builder to cut out, making the possiblilty of using the single window detail or later rear window models a possibility. The kit is very flexible in this way.

I looked up the Luscombe Silvaire on Wikipedia. They have a lot of info. Versions as early as either A or C were known as Silvaire depending on which part of the summary you believe. There is no reference to the Silvaire corp. I have not heard of it. Certainly the C version of 1940 was a Silvaire, and it had fabric wings. The metal wing did not appear until 1945 somewhere around version E. The only versions that had flaps were some of the F models very near the end of production in 1950.

Please PM me with your mailing address. Or, you may email me at [email protected] I will get the plans copied at the local Staples. They have done this for me before, and it usually costs about $5 per sheet. They have even done a reverse (mirror image) plan for me before at no extra charge. This was so I could easily build the left wing panel of a Precedent Champ. The plans with the kit showed only the R panel. I can copy the other materials (they are 8 1/2 x 11) at home on my printer at no cost. I will mail the materials out to you with the total cost, and you can send me a check by return mail. I think all will cost less than $10.

Regards,

Randy Little
