The father in law of a friend of mine passed away a year or two ago andleft behind a nearly complete GN-1. It has the fuselage andtailfeathers through silver on Stits Polyfiber P-103 and the wings arecovered through the orange polybrush. An A-65 is mounted and all of thecowling is done except for some riveting. It has the Cub gear withBRAND NEW Cub tires on Cub wheels with Cub brakes. The wing struts arethe rear Cub struts but need to be sized and finish welded. Prop,tailwheel, instruments, plans, hardware....it is all there. Send emailsto Terry (aka Joe) Wakely at twakely(at)rconnect.com It was built inMontana but Joe just trailered it to Minneapolis area and would prbablydrive it to you if you were within a few hundred miles, rather thatnoffload it from the trailer. It has never been certified by FAA but Ihave been told all the receipts and pictures are there. Therefore thebuyer can get the repairman certificate!!Chris BobkaTech CounselorMinneapolis________________________________________________________________________________Date: Mon, 22 Oct 2001 21:02:04 -0700

Gary,I have looked at the plans for the Bordom fighter along with greg cardinaland we both agreee that there are way too many metal fittings of a complexnature. In my opinion, a diffcult plane to build and probably very heavy.Look at the Flitzer.Chris----- Original Message -----
