PBY Kit

[Ray Willets]

I am looking for a PBY Kit Manufactured by HVP Modell. Does anyone have one for sale or know where I might find one? Thanks for your help.

Beautiful model. A true favorite of mind.

There's not too many left in the real world.
One went down off the coast of Florida a while back doing coastal tours.

You can always build one, like the Guillows or Dare kits, but they're a lot of work. Then when its done, you'll be afraid to fly it.:D

National Warplane Museum in Geneseo NY had a flying PBY, but sold it. I walked in it, when it was still there. There's a lot of room in there. You could easily camp out in those things for a while.

rc-dymond is out of the PBY model. I sent them an E-mail about 2 months ago and they indicated that they hoped to have stock again mid-summer.
