Tarvin plan

Hi,
I’m hoping I can get some assistance in acquiring a plan for the Tarvin Model Products 1/5 scale Ercoupe?
Their website is a dead link... are they still operating?
Thanks
David

I bought plans for the Quartermaster bipe from Tarvin a few months ago. Didn't have any problems.

Nigel (Tarvin's) Monocoupe build a few years ago is still one of my favorite build threads ever. He has a website. Let me look for it.

He sure does ... http://tarvinmodelproducts.com/

But it’s a dead link.
No matter, I’ve bought a set of Jim Messer plans now.

Thanks for your replies, gents.

I've known Nigel for many years, but I have not seen or spoken to him for quite a while.

I do know he became very disillusioned with the hobby and some of the people in it, and he had a few very difficult customers that totally put him off the hobby.

The last I heard he was back doing free flight with a couple of his close friends.

Thank you. I've wondered for a few years about him. Marvelous craftsman of course but we corresponded a few times and I bought a couple of items from him.

A shame to lose him from the hobby........
