I AM NOT SELLING A KIT only new, full-size copies of my original kit PLANS for BOTH the 1944 V-Tailed & 1946 vertical tail Jasco THERMIC "C" 36" wing span towline glider kits + separate sheets of ALL parts patterns.
HERE ARE 2 RARE COPIES OF BOTH THE ORIGINAL 1944 THERMIC "C" V-TAILED GLIDER BY JASCO AND THE 1946 JASCO KIT PLAN (WHICH FEATURED A VERTICAL TAIL). BOTH PLANS COME WITH COPIES OF THE ORIGINAL KIT PRINTWOOD PARTS OUTLINES.
This model was based on the then famous BABY BOWLUS sailplanes that were being produced as homebuilts in the 1930s. My last three pictures are of BABY BOWLUS.
I picture an enlarged copy of the 1946 kit PLAN with the original 100% size PLAN copy over it. I offer enlarged copies of the vintage PLANS separately.
These famous model designs were created by Frank Zaic. As a BONUS I include a full copy of his vintage Thermal Hunters article from an old Flying Models magazine on flying towline gliders successfully. I also include several other excellent TLG articles. You’ll not find a more thorough offering.
“I have loved the Thermic C since boyhood. I’ll never forget the thrill of building the Jetco kit and flying it with my father. The word “dope” had a different meaning to kids in the ‘60s. I sure bought enough of the stuff at my local hobby shop. That and Ambroid cement. We have better materials now, but I still love the translucent magic of silkspan and Japanese tissue. I have been a huge fan of Zaic designs ever since. Once, I wrote to Frank Zaic and told him of my appreciation for his work. He sent me a signed copy of Model Glider Design! Again, thank you for the kind note. I look forward to receiving the plans. I have a grandson and I am thinking just maybe history might repeat itself in a good way. Best regards.” ~ John S.

“Everything with this vendor is done 100% perfectly. The plans were accurate and well printed. I would give Brookwoodflyer 6 stars if I could! He is super-conscientious and will make sure you get exactly what you are looking for. You can tell he is not just in it for the money. He cares about the market he serves. Thank you Brookwoodflyer! I will be back!” ~ John S. Jacksonville, FL
“I loved the high quality printing and extra tow line information. I look forward to more dealings.” ~ Coleman B. Auburn, CA
