Description: I AM NOT SELLING A KIT only a new, full-size copy of the Comet PLAN for a 54" AERONCA CHIEF FF + parts patterns. Comet Models produced some really fine flying rubber-band powered free flight kits of the AERONCA CHIEF aircraft back in the 1930s and 40s. All of their big models had a 54" wing span---this AERONCA CHIEF and the PLANS for their AERONCA "K" and TAYLORCRAFT kits. Since these old Comet models were so big and stable in flight, they can all be converted by knowledgeable builders to RC for 1/2A gas or electric. I have parts pattern sheets from the sheet wood from an old kit to go along with these plans thanks to a West Virginia friend, Jim Via. You can see them pictured here. The full-size AERONCA CHIEF that I show is hanging from the ceiling on display at the Southern Museum of Flight in my city of Birmingham, AL. This picture was taken on July 14, 2010. I show it only to illustrate what your completed model will look like. I AM NOT SELLING A KIT, only a new, full-size copy of the 65-year-old Comet kit PLAN along with the parts patterns. This model is great for scratch builders who love to get some balsa wood and an X-acto knife and just relax away some time gluing two sticks together. For those who might be interested I also have this plan in German. Just ask. As a BONUS I include a nice history of the Aeronautical Corporation of America as well as a three page 3-view document. YOU ARE PURCHASING A NEW, FULL-SIZE COPY OF THE ORIGINAL KIT PLAN FOR THE AERONCA CHIEF, PRINTWOOD PARTS PATTERNS, PLUS BONUS DOCUMENTATION ALL FOLDED IN A MANILA ENVELOPE. “Incredible, everything I needed and more.
