Thanks. I have looked at the Brodak site hundreds of times and never saw it.. Another seniors moment.. The site shows the kit but it is not available. I have e-mailed Brodak to see if this is just temporary.

Thanks Jack.

I just got a reply from Brodak that the kit is available but the website has to be updated. How does the kit look?

   The kit is very nice. It is laser cut & the wood seems OK. I just finished joining the main spar and getting all the ribs off the balsa sheets. i am going to build it just as shown in the kit along with the hardware. I will be using a brodak .25 for power. The kit overall seems very nice!

Regards,
