Does anyone know who made this kit, it's an older version kit with a 86" wingspan.

Bob,

FWIW. The high horizontal stab leads me to believe it may be a Cap, but on the other hand, most of the Cap's I have seen the stab is quite a bit further forward than the one in the picture. Also, the cowl doesn't look like any Cap I have ever seen.

Sorry for any coinfusion, maybe I souldn't have responded to this post until after I took a closer look at the picture.

Fly safe and have fun!!
David

It's an Extra 260 or 230, I think. It it has foam wings, may be an old Pirate Models kit. If it's built up, may be the old Ace kit.

It's not a Laser 200, is it?

To all, thanks for the help. It's a Power House Aircraft (formally pirate models) Extra 260. Their website has construction photos which show the same internal build up as mine. The covering looks like it was copied from Jim Osborne Sr's Extra 260, with different colors. Mystery solved.
Thanks again,
Bob
