Re: 1967 original Cox Stuka airplane, works!
I would think the shipping cost is based on where you live? It's 35 to me...but I live one state away [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img]

Re: 1967 original Cox Stuka airplane, works!
Here is the letter that comes with the plane. I don't think the Sergeant ever got the engine to run right, and never flew the plane. I got it running, but it only would run for a short time. I put in another engine and it runs great. The original numbers matching motor come with the plane also.

Re: 1967 original Cox Stuka airplane, works!
Wow...I will never forget december 26th, the day after I got my 'Stuka divebomber'. I just could not wait, so my Dad took me to a nearby parking lot in freezing weather to fly my plane. It took a while, but he got it running and it took off and made one lap before it divebombed into the pavement and broke in a bunch of pieces !!!
What memories!! Good luck with the sale!!

Re: 1967 original Cox Stuka airplane, works!
Same with me-I had a P-51 Mustang. Crashed. After I bought this Stuka I didn't want to crash it so I bought a NOS Cox Texan to practice with. A couple crashes and broken landing gear, but I finally got the hang of it. Pretty fun, and loud. Still was too afraid to crash this Stuka, so I never flew it.
