I'm contemplating trying .15 Carrier and would like to get your collective thoughts and suggestions.  I've got a NIB Conquest.  Is this an OK entry level engine?  What would be an appropriate model?  I've read about the "Snapper" but don't know where to get plans.  Actually, I'd prefer a more scale-like model. 

Thanks in advance for your assistance.  Gary

The original 15 Carrier rules (from Denver) allowed any 15.

If you would like a scale like model, contact Lou Crane in Serria Vista AZ.  He seems to have ended up with Gerry Deneau's collect of 15 carrier plans.  IIRC there was a F4F Wildcat, Dauntless, F8F Bearcat, and an A4 Skyhawk that Gerry drew up.  The Dauntless plans should be available from Model Aviation.
