My brother built one a few years back but never flew it. I bought it from him and sold it to a hobby shop.

How about scratch building one if the plans are available. How things have changed, in the old days if we wanted a particular model and a kit was not available we simply built one from scratch.

AMA Pond Collection has the plans. It was originally published in American Modeler. Also, keep checking the auctions. They don't always go for so much, so if you're willing to be patient you might get a reasonable deal. But it's not so hard to scratch build a sport plane. Sig still sells canopies; you just cut it down to size. Steerable nose gear can be bought, and the main gear can be bent. The rest is just balsa and a bit of ply. Not so hard once you get into it, and really a lot of fun. Balsa look so pretty and clean without the die crunched tabs and printed numbers.

I'm looking for one of the later ones, a 30th ann. model made in 03, but I might be interested in an older one as well.

Oh, that's a different animal. You can probably get the plans from Tower.

Geeze this thread makes me feel good.. sorry guys.
I found a half built one about four years ago laying around in a hobby shop in Orlando.
Everything seems straight enough. Seems somebody go tired of the build and just abandoned it. I decided to take a chance and grab it.
It's almost done and I have a unique color scheme for it. Gonna call her "Miss Orlando.".. go figure.
Just so very busy these days with work, but I've been plugging at it intermittently, laid aside a Saito .56 for it.
It is truly a classic model isn't it..!!
