| There are a limited number of former sets with plans
available for you scratch builders/foam cutters out there. Foam wing and stab
shapes can be copied from the plans, and the Fin shapes will be
included. These are part of the
inventory we received when we bought the rights to the kits. Check the Formers
pictures to the right to see the formers. The PDF of the limited instructions
can be downloaded below. The rolled plans are included.
As you can see from the above JPG
of the plans, it is a very scale Cherokee. The only
non-scale item is the stab is conventional stab and elevator,
instead of full moving stab. This could be modified by the
creative modeler. It is a 140, so it is fixed landing gear.
Retracts would be easy to install to model a newer version.

You can download a PDF file of the copies of the old
instructions included in the original kit. There is also a new
manual that is presently under construction. This will be plenty
of information to build your Cherokee.

Here are a few of the construction photos taken during the build for the new
and improved manual. The pictures are being taken on a Cherokee that had been
partially started and had been damaged during the move south, so you will notice that
there are a few holes that need to be patched.
