Default A37

Hi Guys,
Have tried most places to no avail - figured someone on here would know....
Trying to get hold of a set of plans, or maybe partial kit, of the Cessna A37 Dragonfly.
Something in the vincnity of 100" wingspan.

Anyone got any ideas or contacts??
Thanks in advance

Thanks for the heads up about Golden West. Just had a look, the kit looks great, but out of my price league.

Was hoping for something like a plan plus some moulded parts etc.[&o][&o][&o]

The Golden West kit looks stunning, and nice and big for these tired old eyes, but the $$'s kill it for me.[]

Regards Dave

Dave,
From what I can see about the HVN A-37, its actually built from a golden west models kit..

Rob

Paste from another forum..
The plane is a Twin JetCat P-160 powered A-37 Dragonfly. It is designed by Tad Krznovsky and built by Henry Nguyen of HVN Models. It's available as a kit. Flies like a big kite. Model flown is around 55 LBS. Wingspan is 144"

Owner and pilot is Sung Kim. The flying field is Apollo Field at the Sepulveda Basin in Los Angeles.

Video is shot by Fox News I believe, using in cockpit camera. full size news helicopter and ground camera. It was part of an R/C hobby special shown on the network about 8 months ago.
