    I'd love to see these plans as well. George's plans are better than average, and my plane is 75% complete, maybe more. But, if I had a digital set that I could scale, I'd like to reduce it to about 82"ws so I could power it with a strong 30cc. Shipley2525@gmail.com Thanks tons!!

    I think you deserve a Kolm. I'm a poor retired teacher so mine has a DLE 85. But, who knows??

    George, the guy that re-drew the Nosen plans has a "B" model.

    Without doing the math, what's the wingspan of your plans? Are they digital?

    Here's the response I just got. Good news for everyone that wants a set. Steve; I had a couple inquiries on the plans. More people are interested in it so I spent the last month redrawing the damaged pages, I posted the plans on RCU in Airplanes/ Warbirds/ Gas or Glow. Thanks George.

    I'll contact George again and see if I can persuade him to maybe resurrect the damaged plans. Follow up : I just sent George a message. I'll let you know what he says. SS

    I talked to the guy that drew them just the other day. Unfortunately, his basement flooded and the plans were destroyed. He said that at this time he has no plans to redraw them.

    Contacted Wingswestrc about the paint. They were very helpful, and even sent me a sample of their paint to try to make sure it was compatible to go over the acrylic that I had already used. Worked great. But on this Mustang, I'll be buying it in Quarts.

    Glassing and Painting techniques

    You guys are the best at sharing techniques. I've been away for a long time and don't know how many threads this info may be on. But, I wanted to tell you about my experience so far with Wingswestrc.com. I've watched all their videos and the info they share is amazing and makes a lot sense...

    Yeah, that's pretty terrible. Wish my painting was that terrible! I'll try to give them a call tomorrow. Supposed to be snowed in anyway.

    Hey, Stang: Over the last 3 weeks, I've sent them 2 messages. No response. Could they have gone by the way?

    Thank You!! Good to be back. Went flying last Saturday and wound up coming home without flying. Fuel lines were hard as baling wire, and there was no spark. More maintenance, less wishful thinking!!

    Wanting to use the very best spray paint (rattle cans) that I could use, I ordered several cans of Montana Gold. Don't waste your time and money on this stuff. The plan was to use the silver as a base coat. The finish feels like sand paper. Very low pressure, which is ok for control, no runs...

    Well, a lot has happened since my last post. I retired, moved to the mountains of South East New Mexico, became a fire fighter and an avid golfer. But the call of RC is strong and the unfinished Mustang is a project that keeps me awake. So, with a new enthusiasm and the purchase of some more...

    I had a lot of trouble with the Robart electric retracts. I've replaced 3 actuators so far. But, they're reinstalled and working for the time being. If they fail again, I will officially declare them to be junk, and insist that robart replace the electric actuators with pneumatic alternatives.
