AIR TRAILS ARTICLE NEEDED

[LARRY RICE]

Ok! This might be tough. I need a article and plan for the "Sea Scooter" boat. It was in a "Air Trails" magazine before May 1954. This was an air boat and was latter kitted by "Master Modelcraft". I hope that you can help.

  I should have it Larry, and will look for it this weekend. Can younarrow it down any more that before May 1954? That would save some time.
  Stay tuned for further developments as they become available!

I have a page with "Air Trails May 1954" written on it. There is a picture of the boat along side of a Enterprise ad. The article with the boat reads:
Simple Sea Scooter'
        The Sea Scooter first appeared as an article in Air Trails; the boat was such a success that Master Modelcraft ........has it in kit form

My guess is that the original might be a year earlier or a little more. I am sorry that I can not be more help.

  Hi Larry;
     Sorry to take so long to get back to you. I got involved with my other hobby, restoring vintage dirt bikes. Been trying to get my ,73 Hodaka Wombat finished!
    Anyway, the mag youare looking for is February 1954 AirTrails and the Ses Scooter is on page 40. If you don't have the mag, email me your address and I'll get it in the mail to you. I don't know if I'm able to scan it and email it. Not that good with this computer thing!

I got the article Yesterday, Thank You so much.
          I will present it at our next board meeting and see what the partners think. It seems like it is made of balsa, I would have bet on plywood.
Thanks again
Larry
