Hi, R/C's
Some one out there know who do i get the "PZL 104 WILGA" plans to
scratch build it ?
PZL 104 WILGA is 1/4 scale (>25cc engine) mostly used to tow gliders,
its ability is high lift, short take off and very manouverable.
( i think it is from Germany !)
Thanks in advance, I appreciate the help in this matter,

Ricardo,
no, Germany is a little more advanced technically... The PZL 104 Wilga
is a contemporary plane from Poland with a huge radial engine. Not sure
whether it's still in production, but it was in the seventies and
probably the eighties. I've seen the full-scale plan at airshows, the
STOL and tow capabilities are outstanding.
There are many models of this plane flying in Germany, but I'm afraid
they are all from the nice and expensive kit Joe T. was talking about
before. The glass fuse shows every panel and rivet in great detail.
Currently, I'm not aware of a plan being available here. I'll keep my
eyes open.
Best regards,
Hartmut

Interestingly enough they are available new in the U.S.! I just saw an
ad for one in Trade A Plane for a new one at $69,000.00.

| 1578.3 | Free Flight plan in the UK | BAHTAT::EATON_N | Smile when you say that! | Mon Dec 20 1993 03:38 | 32 |
Ricardo,
ASP Plans Service in the UK have a plan for a 36 inch span free flight
model of the Wilga. It looks (from a small photo) to be reasonably
"look-alike", except that it has greatly exaggerated dihedral.
I realise that this may be of no use to you, but I thought it might be
useful as a guide for the scratchbuilt model it looks like you're going
to have to do! 8^)
The model is plan number : FSP1178
It costs 4.75 pounds sterling, with 2.00 pound sterling postage to
outside the UK.
You can order it from :
Argus Specialist Publications
Argus House
Boundary Way
Hemel Hempstead
Herts
HP2 7ST
Their phone number is:
(0422) 66551
Hope this helps!
Nigel.
