Hey, where did this company go to? I always wanted to try and build one of their planes from plans but now that I got the tools and skills do it I can't find them. They had a lot of really nice stuff.

1/6 scale Grumman Widgeon
1/4 scale Albatros D.Va
1/3 scale Cessna 170
1/4 scale Ryan STA

...and so on. Man I hope one of you guys know where I can find this place or who is selling the plans now or what old widow woman's door I can kick down and yell, "GI'ME THE PLANS LADY!"

You'll probably have to advertise in the classifieds. I seem to recall someone carrying the plans for a while after Bill Effinger's death but that's been a while back.
They are nice plans with separate sheets showing all templates. I have the Nieuport 28 plans and wish I'd gotten a couple more back when I had the chance.

I have not checked out the validity of this possible new owner but here is contact info for W. E. Technical Service Plans:
Orbit Electronics (John Melvin)
417 Palmeroy Pl.
Horizon City, Texas 79927
1-800-653-4796
1-915-852-2735

Also William (coosbaylumberco) has done a lot of work recreating several of the W.E. Technical items. He should be posting here with information.
