Here is their full response: "The drawings are to be done the end of January." Reading that literally, there's no promise about the Manual. I'm holding off ordering the Drawings & Manuals till they're complete (sans inevitable updates of course) I'm going to get started by getting two corvair cores. Guess I'll contact CORSA here in Texas. All I ever see are whole cars; fruitlessly called some salvage yards but of course the engine is simply not "stocked", if you know what I mean. Any estimates on material costs for the airframe on a plans build (must be pretty close to a 701)?
