You know, the one with the swept-forward wing. I just acquired a rather basic vac-form kit of this unique aircraft and am badly in need of reference material, A copy of the instruction sheet for the Airmodel vacform would be greatly appreciated, or any dimensional info from a pilot's manual or structural repair manual.

Haven't decided yet.

I saw one of these aircraft many years ago at Wiley post Airport in Oklahoma City, and I was astonished to see how sturdy the aircraft appeared to be. The main landing gear reminded me of something from a carrier-based Navy fighter!

I made one of these several years back but it was a VAMI resin kit, not the Amodel vacform. This is what it looks like:



I scanned the instruction sheet at the time. Oddly, the instructions were not for a resin kit but for a vacform one which, I assume, is the Amodel kit. I saved it as a PDF which I do not know how to load onto this site, so if you send me your email address I can send the file to you as an email attachment. I also collected a lot of photos but most came from Airliner.com so you should have no trouble finding them there.

Not familiar with VAMI, but that is a nice-looking model. Mine is a TWR vacform. My email address is:

Found the kit in the stash:







I will try to scan the instructions to you.
