1632.0. "Needed Focke Wulf 190" by LEMAN::EMAD (Noufi The Great) Tue Oct 18 1994 13:37

    I am looking for a Focke Wulf 190A or 190D Kit (or plan) with a
    wingspan of 80" and above.
    
    All kits I could find are in the 60" wingspan range.
    
    One alternative is of course to start from a 60" plan and scale it up,
    but... never done this before, and if a kit already exists with the
    right size...
    
    Any help/pointer welcome.
    
    Thanks,
    
    Naief

	If Nick Ziroli sells plans for one, you could probably get it through Custom Cutters if you weren't interested in scratch building. Anything giant scale and military always sends me looking towards Ziroli. There are several places that cut wood to Nick's plans. Let us know what you find. Jim

	Jim, thanks for your prompt reply but... Who is Nick Ziroli? Who are Custom Cutters? Any address/pointer please? Naief

	Hmmm... where are you based? I don't have my sources here but Jeff might be able to come up with Ziroli's number. I'll try to remember to look it up at home and enter something if he isn't. Both companies advertise in the major US based mags. I would look in R/C Scale Modeler if you can find it near you. Ziroli's do plans, almost all giant scale and military. Custom Cutters do short and long kits based on these plans. Actually, the keywords helped a bit. For Ziroli's phone number check note 1344.11 and you might want to look through the whole topic for other possible sources.

	I am based in Geneva, Switzerland. Never heard of these guys before. (the fact that I am a beginner might also contribute to that?) I would appreciate it if you could post the pointers. Thanks again, Naief
