    Wendell Hostetler Bucker Jungmeister build thread?

    That might be an interesting idea. The size is right. never built anything with a fiberglass fuse. Would definetly want to look closely at anything he has or is preparing.

    Wendell Hostetler Bucker Jungmeister build thread?

    Have done a fair amount of building in the past, but not too many GS. I thoroughly enjoy reading and reseaching build techniques and modifying to meet my needs. I tend to spend an extremly long time researching and planning which significantly lengthens to time required for these types of...

    Wendell Hostetler Bucker Jungmeister build thread?

    That's what I thought. I've traded a few emails with WH and realize that the plans don't come with a build manual, pictures, etc.. I was also considering options to modify the one-piece wings (top & bottom) to incorporate an aluminum or CF wing spar. I don't think that mod will be possible...

    Wendell Hostetler Bucker Jungmeister build thread?

    @Snoopy1. I would be up for that. I was just at the research stage and about to order the plans and then determine if (if any) mods / upgrades were necessary. At this point I have 3-4 other projects on the horizon before this one. I would hope to start perhaps next winter.

    Wendell Hostetler Bucker Jungmeister build thread?

    Have decided to order the Wendell Hostetler 29% Bucker Jungmeister plans and have been looking for a build thread on the various forums but it appears that there aren't any documented builds. Thought I would put it out there to see if anyone is aware of a thread on GSN or another forum that I...

    Wanted Dave Patrick Ultimate 120 Plans

    Wanted Dave Patrick Ultimate 120 Plans

    Good call Snoopy1. I've been doing a fair amount of research and found out that Apparently bob Ankney had done quite a number of updates to the plans so I did ask in my email if the plans / kit they are selling reflect all of hte upgrades. I understand that updates were made to make the kit...

    Wanted Dave Patrick Ultimate 120 Plans

    Don, Always loved flying the Goldberg Bucker. I still have one that is need of recovering at some point. Looks like you did a great job on that enlarged Goldberg Bucker! If you ever find the time to trace the key pieces I would be appreciative and pay for postage, etc. Thanks, Rob

    Wanted Dave Patrick Ultimate 120 Plans

    Thanks Snoop1. I believe that was Bob Ankney. I've done some poking around around and I believe that all of the Ohio RC rights were ultimately acquired by Precision Cut Kits which is now owned by Solo Props. I did find what appear to be both the smaller and larger size Ohio RC kits. I sent...

    Wanted Dave Patrick Ultimate 120 Plans

    Might be tough to ship and not cost effective. Thanks for the the offer though.

    Wanted Dave Patrick Ultimate 120 Plans

    Thanks for the link. That is the Carl Goldberg kit that Dave Patrick designed for CGM's. I downloaded that one a few days ago but it is a little smaller than I was thinking and it doesn't have any rib / former templates so might be a tough build without those details.

    Wanted Dave Patrick Ultimate 120 Plans

    Thanks Guys! You are probably correct about the cost. If you hear back from DP it would interesting to find out if the plans are for sale at any rate. Thanks guys for your help!
