Joe, ask at AlleyCat, I've been told he's taken over most of the Heritage Aviation stuff

Kits for Cash may have one as Ian was Heritage.  I'll see him in a few weeks so I'll ask then.

Ian was the person who told me all the Heritage stuff is now at Alleycat

Kits for Cash has apparently changed ownership.  This is reflected in their website.  No more Heritage Aviation stuff.   Rumour has it that all the Heritage stuff was destroyed when the business was sold.

I do hope not, they did some good stuff!  :banghead:
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

Alec from Allycat told me about the heritage take over a few months back. He said all exsisting stock is now in his hands. but as Ian had no form of stock control system in place, he has no idea what he has stock wise. And knowing alec, he will want to get every thing into some sort of order before he puts it back on the open market.
I always hope for the best.
Unfortunately,
experience has taught me to expect the worst.

Size (of the stash) matters.

Kits for Cash are still run by the same ownership, Ian just sold all his Heritage Aviation stuff to AlleyCat. Kits for Cash have another name for they products he will continue with, it's called Simian. Ian told me that he destroyed stuff that didn't sell, but the majority of it was sold.

Ian said he had to relocate his store so he was closer to where he lives now. Which is why the address has changed.


I have a Heritage Grob in my stash, RCAF uses them. But it's a 120 and will be part of my continuing Canadian theme
