Hey guys,
this isn't an ad but just a note to let classic pattern fans know there is a vintage Phoenix available. It belongs to a old friend who is no longer able to participate in the hobby. The plane was expertly built in the 70's and has Rohms and SF with T pipe. Was finished with K&B and is in very good condition. It has mostly spent it's life hanging from the ceiling. I flew the plane a few years ago and can say that it's nice in the air.

I have no interest in the plane....other than a fear someone will get the plane who has absolutely no idea what it is. It's way too cool to be trashed.

BTW, I doubt the owner is up to shipping it, so it will probably have to be picked-up about an hour outside of San Antonio, Texas. Anyone interested should say so and I'll get an email address to you. Whatever deal you work out is your business.

Photo?

Price?

I'd like to help, but info like photos and price are up to interested parties to work out. Like I said, I've no interests other than to help see that the plane finds a good home.

Im interested, but I didnt know the 9 was around in the 70's

The 9 wasn't.

You guys are right....the Phoenix in question is actually an 8....not a nine. And, was built in the 80's.

I'd also have to agree that (the 10, anyway) bore no real resemblance to the 8 and all preceeding models. To my eye anyway, the early models were more desirable.

For anyone interested in the Phoenix....it has been spoken for. It went to RCBuilder42yrs.

And, it really is a small world....he turns out to be an old flying pal from the eighties, resurfaced on RCUniverse. Go figure.
