National Balsa We sell only the wood for the project

Welcome to the Hostetler line of Airplanes....The range of his designs includes the Classics of the 30's to modern high performance racers that include Jon Sharp's Nemesis, Patti Johnson's Full Tilt Boogie (highly modified Mong) and the most outstanding Home Built of the decade, the Lance Neibauer designed Lancair IV manufactured by Neico Aviation / Lancair International of Redmond, OR.
We supply only the wood, we do not provide the plans. They have to be purchased from Wendell Hostetler Plans We have the full kits, which include all wood necessary to complete the plane, including sheeting and skin, as per the designer. The short kits include formers for fuselage, ribs for the wing(s), wing tips, all odd shaped cut parts. Wendell does have an accessories suppliers list.... accessories suppliers We would appreciate feed back on these kits, balsabug1@aol.com, let us know if something was missing, or not cut right, or just that you are enjoying the kit.. if there are problems we will fix it, we would like to know our customers are happy with their building experience.
