Looking for R/C Airplane Plans
I just finished my first R/C Airplane (a Duraplane 40). I am going to fly it soon but I need to start investigating my next build. I have quite a bit of experience with smaller guillow kits and the like. I need to enduldge in a challenging project. Does anyone have an idea of good places to start looking for airplane plans?

RE: Looking for R/C Airplane Plans
I might have a set of Plans that might tickle your fancy for a good challenge...
The plans are Nick Ziroli's F8F-Bearcat. Large Scale, 86" wingspan, you can check out the link to see what you might get yourself into...
http://www.ziroliplans.com/cat_frameset.html
This link will bring you to the Ziroli website to view what you could get into...It is a FANTASTIC plane, but I just have too many other projects on the go to get into this build. I have a couple of other links I have used to research this project if you are interested...

Skynate how about RCM's Advanced Trainer MK II. They just came out a few months ago. Nice simple plans and a neat plane. I am in the process of building one now. If not the Cloud Dancer plans #1146 are also real nice. The prices are good too.

RE: Looking for R/C Airplane Plans
Some time ago, way back in the early 70's I believe, a guy named William Burrie designed a 47in. Hal Krier, Great Lakes Trainer. The plans were published, but I cannot remember the magazine. Does anyone have any idea if these plans are available and if so, where can I get a copy?
