I've presently got an unfinished project on the board, and another project I want to do after that, but I'll plan on adding this to the list to follow. Probably get to it in 4-6 weeks. That will give me time to have the plans scanned and copied prior to starting the build. I'll also plan on tracing any parts not well-represented on the plans as Igo, so I'll have the parts and plans preserved. As far as I can tell, the manufacturer must be out of business, so perhaps there can be some collusion without significant copyright violation.

I'm uncertain where I obtained this kit, but suspect it was from flea-bay probably around 8-10 years ago. Up until 1 1/2 years ago, I had been out of the hobby for many years. Around 9 years ago I thought I would have time to come back, and went into acquisition mode adding to some older kits I have stashed. Didn't work out then, but I've been getting back lately. Dunno' when this kit went out of production probably before I purchased it as I'm attracted to both unusual kits as well as those no longer commercially available. I haven't really looked at this kit closely, but the "elevators" appear to be fixed to the wing, and until Itake a hard lookI won't know if the wing is readily removable.

If there's interest, I'll do a build thread on this once I get started (assuming Ican figure out how to properly load thumbnails that will enlarge to the forum). Yeah, new to the forum, too.
