I made a cast of the engine cowling and canopy, if anyone is interested in one, I am able to make them out of the same ABS white plastic or clear PETG (does not crack like abs, if you bend it hard it goes white on the stress areas, great material). Cost I have not yet calculated, but would only be for material and shipping (I am from Portugal).
It is great to see that there are still a good number of these being built and flown!
I flew a Learjet 31 (one of 4 special ones, made for Singapore airlines for training their pilots on the B737) for 3 years, so if I can be of any help, please advise, maybe I can contribute with some information.
Thank you!
Fly safe, be safe.

Hello, I know it has been some time, but is anyone still able to please forward me the digital plans? I am trying to save a bad half built kit while modifying it to resemble the Learjet 31 I flew (have a thread here on rcu), but I only have the instruction manual. I would be greatly appreciated if someone could help me.

My Feedback: (5)

Well I finally got around to putting an engine on this plane. I had a OS .46 AX laying around. I had to add 8.5oz to the very end of the tail to get it to balance at 5 13/16. That is crazy!!! 🙂. That is also without a cowl. So after adding that I bet it will require about 10oz.
