Kit Survey
« on: April 28, 2009, 09:53:32 PM »
Would anyone be interested in us making a kit of the Berkeley (Bob Elliott) Grumman Guardian stunter?

We would have to have the cowl reproduced in plastic.

If there were enough interested, this would be for sometime early next year(2010).


Here is an email address to get on a waiting list: guardianstunter@builtrightflyright.com

I have the Berkeley kit sitting on the shelf.  Look at it every so often and then put it back on the shelf.  A lot of construction and thin airfoil.  I will think about it as finances have went to pot lately.  DOC Holliday

I'm saving my pennies for that Champione F-86. Just finished paying off my medical bills for the last bout of Cellulitis...goes in the mail in the AM, along with 6 months worth of the property taxes and $1,000 toward the new windows...the list goes on. But today was "donut day" at work...and tomorrow's payday.  #^ #^ #^ Steve

Speaking of that, when are the F-86 and Larry Scarinzi's Trident scheduled to come out?

The Trident's one of my favorites.   ;D

Not to worry, they are both still on the list of future kits.

Sorry to those wanting one but since there has been overall very little interest on the Guardian...

We have decided not to make this one at this time.
Thank you and God Bless
