Pica used to make a kit. Should be able to find all sorts of plans about...

There was some buzz about Cox making an ARF out of the kit, check their website

Dave Platt makes a short kit and Iron Bay(Byron) has a full kit.

The Platt / Pica T-28's are often seen on eBay, too. Take a peek and maybe you'll get a deal.

Have to agree the Iron-bay is the largest and most complete kit. Have one getting closer to paint now. I believe COX has bought the Pica line and is selling the T-28 as an ARF. Saw it at Toledo this year. It is a 80" model vs the 98" Iron Bay. All T-28's fly great. I have owned three of the Pica models and have personally seen the Iron bay model fly. Excellent war bird subject. By the way Tshark, FANTASTIC looking Trojan. Great inspirational photos.
