blw...I have a plans set, too. Published by Model Airplane News. They are only one sheet of blueprint-type drawings. They show a built-up fuselage with foam wings.

Bax,

Thanks. Think I'll go look at MAN.

"Oh to have those old kits and engines again - one more time!"
AMEN Ed.
Sure glad I found this thread about the Mach I. I never had one, but always thought it was one of the most beautiful pattern ships. Perhaps now, all these years later, I'll get the chance to have one....sure hope so. I used to fly piped Rossi 60s and they were the best engines I ever flew. Are these still available and if so where can I get one? I'll also need the pipe.
Regards to All

Don't run out of altitude, airspeed, and ideas all at the same time.

BLW,
I've reached retirement age and I'm getting back into the hobby/sport I love...
flying RC. Do you know if any of the participants in your Forum are located in
central Texas?
Are there any contests or activities scheduled for my area this summer?
Best Regards
JC

PS I like your picture of Belushi as "Wild Bill Kelso".

JC,

Thanks. Good old Wild Bill.

I don't know about events in your area. Have you checked the SPA website: www.seniorpattern.com?

Any progress on the mold for the Mach 1 fuse, I built one in the 70's and it was a pretty cool thing, I just got the MAN plans and I'll build the balsa fuse if I have to but your glass one looks very faithfull to original. I'd be interested in a couple of them if I could figure out the freight to OZ.
Cheers
Greg

I recently posted a very short video on my Mach 1 (photos posted earlier).
