I see a couple of these still flying in my area now and then and thought that it would make an interesting RC plane. It has an interesting history.. 1st aircrarft to use JATO, WWII trainer, and was also made out of wood when the metal was scarce during the war and was also used for submarine spotter duty on the US coast.

Yea That was what I was thinking also.. Guess I should have been clearer in my request. I knew of the Balsa one which is pretty neat!Originally posted by OV10 View Post

Yes am aware, just happen to have a Seagull Skyraider so I know that what you listed is balsa/ply construct and that they don't make foam. My original post was for supporting the OP's request to Motion who only deal with foam airframes.Originally posted by dkalwishky View PostThe Ercoupe I listed is balsa and ply construction, not foam. Seagull does not make foam planes.Warbird Charlie

Sorry for the confusion, thought you were responding to my first post since I quoted you on your first post. That's the nice thing about the quote feature, removes any confusion on who your talking to.Originally posted by dkalwishky View PostI was responding to Grossman, not you. :)
Best regards,Warbird Charlie

There is a small airfield not to far from here that has a couple of them and last week I was going by our regional airport and noticed one talking off from there and from that I thought I would make the request per the forum. I find it a unique looking plane..Originally posted by Grossman56 View PostSorry for the confusion, still a great airplane that , I would think, falls under the category that Flightline wants to take. A seldom represented airplane.
I remember seeing a lot of these at small fields when I was a kid.

More like a B-25 tail....no twin fuse booms ;). I can see FlightLine or Dynam doing this at a 50" span.Originally posted by Grossman56 View PostI remember thinking, "A single engine plane with a P38 tail, cool!!!"
