Just out of curiosity, what are "Little Legend" and "P40"? Are they unique aeroplanes or a class of plane?

Don't know about 'little legend" but P40 may refer to profile airplanes with no more than a 40-size engine. It's a local event.

I believe there was a previous thread on the Little Legend model, which is a 1/2a profile version of Bill Werwages USA-1 model.

Someone comment that is could be flown in a P40 (Profile 40) event, which are common at a lot of contest.

>Just out of curiosity, what are "Little Legend"

The "Little Legends" are a set of 1/2A models of the five airplanes that have won the WC from America. The Gieseke Nobler, USA-1, Genesis, Stilleto, and Impact.
The plans were drawn by Steve Buso, and they are 1/2A Profiles. They are built with the same wing but the outlines are changed for each different model. They are Models of Models!
They need one of the new 049 or 061, they run about 32-33 inch WS.
Built the same as a full size profile, and fly great!

Thanks everybody. I got the impression that there was more than a "one design" concept involved. Both events sound a lot of fun. If only I had more time for fun!

Several years ago, and when I was still importing the VA 049, Steve sent the "Little Legends" plans to me.

Killer, just killer. Even if one never intends to build any of the models, the plans make great decoration for any shop.

I take it then you still have the plans? Can you send me a set? What is the cost for making copies in the NW? I had some done at a Kinkos in Renton for 3.50 each in 2002.
