"Anyone know this Stuka model?"
This Stuka caught my eye. I believe the wing is the best feature.
Certainly the flaps are non-working but still a great looking model!
Anyone know of it? Plans?

See my reply on SSW. Of course it's well-known (except I never saw one finished in red!) -- obviously it's the Hi Johnson Stuka, 59" span, 580 sq. in., flown by Jim Ivey in Jr. Stunt at the 1956 (?) Nats, and also at a years-ago VSC by Bob Whitely's son.
Plans: Stuka Stunt (www.clstunt.com/plans) and Barry Baxter (www.controllineplans.com)

Mike, thanks for that.
It's a start. One link is down and the page to the plans are down also.

My personal opinion, but,I would go with Barry Baxter. I have ordered plans from him in the past and gotten them in short order. I usually order more than one set/design when I order. Am finishing up the latest one from him. It was a E-bay offer I didn't read close enough. Original magazine article that was stold could be enlarged at a local copy center. It was mucho easier to order from Barry.

Construction article/plans in the 1960 MAN Annual. Plans are available from the AMA.

How much interest is there in that Stuka?
If I get plans, I'll vector all the line art and send the file out to be laser cut.
This works better with participation.
