After years of seeing his plans advertised in model aircraft magazines years ago, I finally emailed Gus to ask about a plans list for "speed 400" planes. Well I decided to order the Me-163 and the Bell X-1. A week later I received my plans with a note from the man himself. Thanking me for ordering the plans with hints and tips on both models. A week later I ordered the F-86, and another note with it with a little bit of Gus interesting past. Gus's customer service is second to none, and I am sure he will be there if someone has any questions. Some will chime in and mention that his plans are not scale, I would consider them "fun scale". You can look at his planes from far and up close and still say that is a good looking F-86 or an X-1. His planes are designed to be easy to frame up and get into the air quick. Here is his current list for Speed 400 aircraft.
