Well, the joke's on me!! I went back to the Hobby Horse page for Sig Airplanes and read what I missed before. There is an explanation that Sig is having balsa problems and is waiting for another container and Hobby Horse states that kits are expected in February. I cancelled my order from Hobby Horse for a kit that is ''NOT'' in stock.

Then a friend told me that Bruce Tharpe of BTE models was the designer of the original Four Star and his Venture 60 was a similar but improved version of that design. Well to make a long story short, I called BTE models this morning, talked to Bruce himself and ordered my Venture 60 kit, which is in stock. Should have it by the end of the week.........yippee!!!!

Cheers,
Andy
