Ive been looking around for plans (any size) for the Curtis Schneider racers ie R 2, R3 etc from the mid 20s.
I know Don Smith has a set at 1/4 scale (only 66") but its on wheels and no float views or plans. The old Cleveland Supply has one at various scales/sizes but it may end up being blown up rubber powered plans. Do any of you know of any others that may be lurkiing about out there. I like float flying and would like to have one of the little Curtis racers in the hangar. Prolly build it for a 60 2 stroke, About 1/6th or 1/5 scale.
Thanks Doc

There is a kit available, from someone in Canada I think. Try this link, and note Ben's contact info at the bottom of the first post.

Thanks Martin. I registered on the forum where Ben is currently active and sent an e mail to the company that produced the kit. Thier website doesnt have much stuff listed but if the plans are still available thats all I need any way. Someplace for a start even if some redesign is in the works. We met briefly at Rhinebeck, I followed your build, the Aviatic is a fabulous model.

I remember Doc. Unfortunately I think I was in the midst of something so couldn't stop to talk. Hopefully next year? OFB Brian and I are planning to return.
