When will the first eligibility list be posted?

Will PAMPA release another book with eligble designs like they did for OT and Classic, or will Wilke release a CD similar to his OT and Classics disk?

If I was to do this, I would include a preview supplemetal edition, with designs that will become eligible within the next 5 years. That would allow me to contemplate, build, and prepare in advance.

What do you think?

Yes... John is very capable of the job. I would hate to think of how much time Tom Morris invested in the original Classic directory.

Does "Nostalgia 30" mean airplanes 30 years old? That would make 1980 the cut off for next year. (2010). And 1981 the following year, etc.

Hi Tom

Yes it means 30 years old or older

Okay, here we go. Today from Flying Models;Jan 1970 through Dec 1980. 1980 of course it's for next year, but taking the time to gather the plans, article, wood, do it to it, etc, it could be Jan 80.

In order for them to be "legal", we or rather the CDs need photos, dated proof, magazine articles, etc. Memories don't do the job.  Are the photos dated on the back. Many are if done at most photos developer shops. Any dated plans?  No matter what proof, is  required, that is why I am listing not only plans presented in the mags, but articles with photos.  Very many planes were modified or "kit bashed" kits and no plans were ever rendered.  Thus the YR and MO of the magazines are listed with the photos and the section those photos are in such as Round & Round in MAN, or Aerobatics in MA, Nats reports, etc.  

he has the plans and they are dated.  he also has pictures of the planes from the 70s.  The XP-40 he designed in 1970 and the Minnow around 1972.

Edit: If I only knew how to scan pictures into the computer, I would post pics of those planes.

Thanks Ty.. I saw this "new" column and didn't read the whole concept before I posted... still I find it very exciting.. planes that wouldn't get built and flown in PA are getting a second life.. at competition.. thanks for all the work and research you have done.
