No plans yet. AJ smith seems to answer stuff really quickly Via Email, he also answers his phone most of the time. Allen seems to be realllly hard to get in contact with. I talked to him once on the phone, about getting some plans, I sent a paypal payment for the plans that night, and now its 3 weeks later and I've heard nothing.

yea Allen doesn't seem in a hurry to do any thing.. probably why this loverly little plane an't spending to much time flying...

i ordered an info pac from Allen over the phone followed by a pay pal trans
and then called him 2 weeks later to see why i'd had no emails or any thing from him and he told me that he was going outa town and would get it in the post at the end of this week...

might be a good idea to call him up just to make sure he's gona get the plans in the post...
does AJ deal with the plans at all as he could be a better bet...

i really like this little plane and would like to build one but i do want to get as much pre fabbing done with the major parts as posable, what have you found out about the pre fab parts..??

AJ told me lots of prefab parts are still available, however, material costs have changed so call for a quote. (the prices on the site aren't valid anymore.)

i'm keen for the plans, let me know how long it takes to get em and keep us posted on the pursuit of parts...

Will do, I'm still debating cassutt or snoshoo. But I would still like the plans for the snoshoo either way.

I just got a call from a fellow in Idaho thats selling a Snoshoo fuselage that he had AJ weld up for him a while ago.


Finally some Snoshoo parts!

Cassutt Fuselage very cheap

Fri Apr 04, 2008 4:16 pm

If you are thinking about a cassutt I have a fuselage I will sell you very cheap It looks good and I was going to build from it but I found a more complete Cassutt that I am pretty far along with. But I have an 0-320 in it. So it will be a sport plane and not a racer.

You could always throw together one of these cute little guys (Titan T-51). Not a racer type, but it's 100-hp, aerobatic, retracts, etc.
