I stand corrected somewhat, yes it appears they are still around but not in the form that they were in the past. Looks as if they morphed into just another mail order place. I searched the site to find the pattern kits... they are not there?

They are still Maureen and Mike.
They are selling the molds for the old pattern planes.
Among the ones already sold are the Phoenix 8 and EU-1.
My two favorites.
They are keeping the molds for the 2 meter planes.
The molds they are selling is because it is getting harder and harder to have the fiberglass work done.
Mike no longer has the time to do it.
So selling the molds to someone who wants to actively produce the planes may be a good thing.
Don't know...
They are still a great source for PBG wing tubes, Bolly gear, Gator wing adjusters, etc.
PLUS they are now a full service hobby shop.
Why not give them a call?
Maureen is great to deal with!
Hope this helps!

It still remains true, they are NOT the true "Pattern" company they use to be. They are just another hobby store - not putting them.

Guys,

hate to break the news to them they are still a pattern company, just not doing kits right now. but do know there is something in the works.. I see Mike at alot of the TN shows and anytime I'm in the Nashville area I stop in.. Also I sell them a bunch of stuff I manufacture !! We have even talked about me doing the glass work at one point.

They are great people to deal with !!!

Better yet, why don't they get a website backup? I won't be sending money to any business that appears to be folding. The loss of their website is not a good sign. From your post, it sounds as though they have abandoned classic pattern. True?

I am not trying to pick a fight, but even my wife's miniscule quilt pattern business can afford a website.

I read all of that before, comprehended it and wrote my post, fully aware of what had been said.
