AMA Cub

June 21, 2012Experimental, GalleryDinkar, IndiaDarcy

The AMA Cub is a legacy model airplane. Designed by Frank Ehling in 1967 it has been the most popular stick and tissue beginner model. I sent one to my friend Dinkar in India. After making a few Squirrels he found the AMA Cub much more complicated so he decided to make a Squirrel from the kit. 🙂
