There is always an interest in those planes. Most were just dead end projects, but some of those concepts and featured made it to early 1st generation jets.

Nobi had a nice collection in 1/48 scale which I built years ago when I was in Canada ( I donated them all to my co workers there ). I even upscaled some to 1/33 scale ( my personal choice ).

Murph, re "Beaver Class Security Tug" found a low poly 3D model on SimplePlane.com. Looks like a gaming object shopping site. Worth a look?

Murph, SimplePlanes site is tricky to navigate, and 3D objects seem to be proprietary format, but dowload page for mini-tug is: SimplePlanes | Boomin Beaver Mini Tug
Hope it helps, though.

I saw that one. I found enough info to make a 3-view. Just gotta figure out what it looks like below the waterline.

Webbed feet and a big paddle-like rudder in back, I bet.

One question, and forgive me for hijack your thread: WHY DON´T YOU REPLY YOUR E-MAILS?

I usually do if I get them. You have to use the Gmail address though. If you use the "Contact Me" form on the site, there's about a 50% chance they won't go through. I have no idea why.

I do get about 100 emails a day, Some of which are even related to paper models. Mostly people begging for free models. I wish I could get things for free, like food, gas for my car, electricity, etc.

OK, just want to ask a question: are you still planning to do the ELCO 77ft boat? This is one I have been looking for for a long time...I got the simple ones off this site and appreciate the effort of those who did them...but I am still hoping for this model to go with the 80Ft Elco Dave Winfield offers....

I don't want anything for free. I bought the white version of the Dash-8 and it is the long version, what I need is the short version to do the Air Inuit recolor and if there is any indication to shorten it. I did the recolor of the Boeing 737-200 Air Inuit, they never told me that it was going to be for sale. Anyway, neither richer nor poorer, I also had to spend on ink and paper when I did the recolor.

I like a lot, some of early models is need a revamp/refurbunishing.
