Default Midwest Extra 300

Looking for a set of plans for the airfoiled tail version. I was fortunate enough today to have a new kit offered to me at a good price but it is the flat tail version. I built a flat tail version years ago, sold the plane and regretted ever since. If anyone has a set of plans and/templates for the tail surfaces, please let me know. I will use this as a build thread in the future but a couple of other projects have to be finished first.

I've built both versions a couple times, the flat stab flies just as well, you just need stab bracing,, I'll dig through my plans box and see if what I have, I doubt it shows ribs templates though

Edit: Sorry must have got thrown out after the basement flood [:@]

Should be easy enough to make set of ribs for the stab.

My Extra friend, I have what you seek. I have the 300XS in the box (airfoil tail). How do I get you what you need? Trace ribs and copy plans?

Here are some pictures of the first Midwest Extra i built in the mid 90's. It is a scale scheme and plan on using this same scheme for #2 at least for the moment. It had a Moki 1.8 for power.
Please add your pictures of your Midwest Extra.

Mine is still in the box, and with the giant Extra going together, I don't know that the Midwest will get done within the decade.
