I know you went to a lot of effort to produce the 109FX plans - I don't know how many takers you had, but there MUST be a market for this thing - there's nothing out there like it. _________________________ FS~Valisk www.skiesoffire.org "I've never seen the Icarus story as a lesson about the limitations of humans.

Gene Buckle Member Registered: 01/13/04 Posts: 852 Loc: Graham, WA	I didn't have enough takers for the 109F/X plans - that's why I released them for free. I suspect it was just too complex a project for the average DIYer despite my best efforts. I won't be releasing any plans for the collimated display until the patent issue is resolved. g. _________________________ Proud owner of 80-0007 http://www.f15sim.com - The only one of its kind. http://geneb.simpits.org - the Me-109F/X Project
