I heard a rumor.....
« on: June 28, 2012, 01:04:42 PM »
A little bird (well a big bird) told me that this plane is about to be kitted. #^
I sure have this one on my short list for sure. I could see a blue engine under the hood on this puppy. S?P

Hi Paul,I remember that aircraft from Flying Models and I always thought she was a beautiful ship.I just can't remember if it is old enough to be Classic legal or is it Nostalgia??Did'nt the original have a McCoy 40??I hope Mr. Lynch won't mind but I think mine would be E-powered.It sure is a beautiful bird.Jeff

Hey Jeff
It's  Nostalgia. 
Jim would not mind at all if you did a electric.

Put down that guitar and build one! ;D

HI Paul,

Tell Jim congratulations from us all!  I have always liked the looks of that model.  I am sure it is a great flying plane, Jim does such nice work.

Beautiful as always. The original had a Series 21 40 in it and I think Jim still has it. IT flew well too, but it was overshadowed by his Rabe Bearcat at the time I saw them.

Good rumor Paul.

So he is going to keep us in suppense and not let us know who the manufacturer is or the release date.  That is one great looking plane. H^^

I think he is putting some notes on the plans. Don't think a release date has been set yet.

Keep your eyes wide open.. :o

I actually owned the original Volunteer for a year or two and sold it to a member of the Peoria Area Wyreflyers.  I saw it fly at SIG one year and have not seen it since.
