Does anyone know why PAMPA no longer offers the "Little Legends" planset drawn by Steve Buso. I was looking for a set several months ago. I contacted Steve Moon, Tom Morris, Randy Smith, and Windy. No one had the plans for sale but Windy was very helpful and put Bill Hummel in contact with me. Bill graciously sent me a set of plans. Thanks Bill I really appreciate it. After looking at the plans I concluded that these beautiful little stunter were designed to be sold through PAMPA but I see they are no longer offered. Does anyone have any insite?

Thanks,

Don't really have an answer on the "why" of availability from PAMPA.
But, when we get back from KOI this weekend I am putting the finishing touches on my LL USA-1. They are great with a Norvel 049, but especially the 061!

I have to say, that these set of plans need to be made available. As you probably know, anything from Steve Buso's drawing table is going to be top notch. I was able to get a set of these plans and they are the neatest birds. The plans include a G Nobler, Stiletto, USA 1, Genesis, and an Impact. I am going to take them to our club meeting and see if I can get some of the guys to build one. I keep leaning towards the Genesis at this point, but they are all very COOL.

I had planned on having it ready and maybe even flying it in Profile!
But, alas, the other "contest" planes' preparationsw took precedence.
plus the weather has been horrible for painting.

The plans were created for PAMPA but never released to them.
A formal explanation may be forthcoming from those that know why.

Bill answer was basicly the same as on the posts here. The plans were never released to PAMPA. Members of Steve Buso's club pick up a few sets. That is all I really know right now.

Well, the question still remains ----- how do we get a set of these plans? I have never scratch built anything, but after seeing an earlier post about these little planes, it looked to me like a good way to start.

Might they be available directly from Steve Buso?
