It has a 76 inch wingspan. Both top and bottom wing are the same lenght. I think it is aboout 54 inches long. The kit has never been out of the box, but the plans were in bad shape. I think I have replacement plans that I got off of the web. I wish I had the instructions, I read an article that said the instructions were detailed and needed to be followed closely.

I also got this off of Craigslist. I paid 50 dollars for it. I did tile print a new set of plans but if anyone has or knows anything about the instructions, please let me know.

I found this on Craigslist. The guy had it listed for 99 dollars. I texted him an offer of 85 bucks. I expected him to answer with something about lowballing him. 30 minutes later he texted me back and said he would take it.

It is a Top Flite Sierra kit. I got the 80% finished kit, an brand new (still in the box) OS LA 40, a brand new Tower Hobbies 4 channel radio with nicads and 4 never opened servos. Also had enough covering, various tools including a brand new covering iron. Oh and 6 brand new wooden props. The only down side was there was only half the engine mount and no wheels. Both are an easy fix..... I have wheels from another crashed trainer and I just need to buy a new mount.

I am going to try to finish this one before I proceed to the Big John kit.
