Purchased from my neighbor's widow (he went WEST from cancer) the start of a F.8L FALCO. Have the plans, construction manual, the following kit components: Fuselage Frames,Wing Spars, Wing Ribs, Tail Group Spars, Tail Group Ribs, Tail Group Equipment, Fuselage Equipment, plus lots and lots more stuff. My neighbor got as far as getting the fuselage frames setup and started work on the tail, got the tail spar in place and the rudder ribs installed. I have decided to not finish the airplane, have far to many projects in the works. I have photos of what it looked like - as far as he was able to get it, I have disassembled it due to needing the space in my shop. I will supply the photos to those who would be interested. My wife and I will be vendors at Oshkosh (we sell museum quality airplane models) in the Rockwell - Collins Hanger C, booth # 3007 if anyone would like to stop by the booth I will have the photos with me. I'm told (by those who have built a Falco) I have over $35,000. worth of parts, that is if you were to purchase them new TODAY. I'm asking what I paid for them = $15,000. Due to the size of the spars and all the extra wood (there is a lot) shipping all of it could get expensive, picking up the parts - again due to their size - would be the best option. I live about an hour North of the Phoenix area in the mountains and yes there is an airport in our small town of Payson. You can contact me by email: [email protected] or call: 602 316-4430 for more info. Yours truly, Ted
