   Hi Mike;
    As it was kitted by Jetco, no, I don't believe any one has. Penn Valley Hobby in Pennsylvania was reproducing some Jetco kits, but I believe they were all free flight models. Brodak has their Shark 402 that resembles it but is an entirely different airplane.
 HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
Type at you later,

I'm pretty sure Eddie at Lazer Works has a parts pack for the Shark 15.  All the hard stuff is done but you still need to come up with plans, hardware, gear, controls, hardwood motor mounts, and any sheet wood.  George

I might be wrong but I think that Walt Umland kitted the Shark 15 quite awhile ago. I'm speculating that it might be the property of John Brodak now. Mike check with Walt first..

Dennis I will before I produce a kit.  I know John puts out the 402 Shark which is a different airplane.  I checked on Walter's website and the Shark 15 is not listed there.  Thank you.

It was a few years back that Walt Umland made a run of Shark 15 kits. I baught two of them very nice kits. They were done off of the Jetco plans.
