This Volare Products neo-Dime Scale plan is based on the Comet A18 kit. This is strictly designed for the Stratoplane version of the Winnie Mae (a modified Lockheed Vega). FAC-GHQ has confirmed that the STRATOPLANE (only) can be built and flown without landing gear, as the real stratoplane jettisoned the landing gear shortly after takeoff.
The neo-Dime plan was published in the FAC News #345 (Sept-Oct 2025) to comply with FAC rules for neo-Dimers.
This short kit contains: 2 pieces of laser-cut balsa, a plan and a vacu-formed canopy.
ALL VOLARE KITS ARE MADE IN SMALL BATCHES. IF STOCK-ON-HAND IS ZERO, A NEW BATCH WILL BE PRODUCED SOON. SIMPLY ORDER ANYWAY AND WE WILL MAKE THEM.
