Ward,
The Storch is from enlarged Dennis Bryant plans. Wing span is around 100". I originally thought the guy I bought it from had said it had a 10' span, but I have not measured it. In comparison to my other 100" palnes it may be a touch bigger but not 20". As for power it is flown on a G38 with a 20x10 Top Flight prop and flys very well. Performance is very much like a Super Cub and the flaps are very effective. A friend of mine who has now passed away built the original Bryant design and liked it so much he blew up the plans to fit the G38. The landing gear are home made fabrications that are easy to make and functional. If you get the plans and want some tips on making the gear let me know. Forest |

Hello.
Here are my two warbirds one from each war. The DR-1 is from a Flair kit,it is actually 23 years old but still going strong,and I still enjoy flying it. The other is a B-25-J Heavenly Body it is the 101 inch Ziroli version also a great flier very stable and smooth on the controls.

A few Pics, P51 is TFGS with G62. P40 is a Yellow which is almost finished should be ready to maiden in about 2 wks. Both models FG and painted with foam rollers. P40 will get a G62 as well. Kevin.[
