    Bf 109 Blueprints/Drawings Needed

    Considering that Pam before she died didn’t have a set of either the MJ 9 or 90 plans that’s quite interesting. The only pages that Pam had were supplied by me. Even Jurca doesn’t own a complete set of MJ9 orMJ90 plans. I talked to both Pam’s brother and husband after she died neither knew where...

    It been awhile. I had a friend tig weld up the tail wheel assembly. The thin metal warped on him (.040). I have someone who is coming over this Sunday, he says thin metal is no problem. Hopefully I can finish up the tail wheel assembly and move on to other parts. I have the flap drive arms ready...

    Airplane For Sale Sindlinger Hurricane project

    There is a Sindlinger hurricane project for sale in Michigan (not mine) I have never seen the project. I was told the fuselage will either need rebuilding or repair.

    5/8 Sindlinger Hawker Hurricane

    I dusted off this project. There was a lot of dust. I’ve been making parts for more than 15 years, always worried about storage. I decided last night to start assembling these parts. Pictured are the parts for the inboard flaps. I need to make four sets (2R +2L). They get assembled but the...

    Questions about material on Jurca Mustang

    Is that because someone else made them for you. Here, I’m cutting metal parts. You can see my mj9 fuselage in the background. Leaning against it are two set of trusses for a pair of Sindlinger hurricanes and a completed side for an airdrome Fokker DVII. Not sure what was being cut. I think wing...
