Would anyone happen to have any shots and/or performance info on the American Eagle Model A-129 3 place biplane? I'll leave you to guess what happened when I used the words 'American Eagle' in any kind of search! ;D

That "TIMM" in the photo....is that the company that created the Collegiate? I recall making a rubber-powered model of that aircraft. Flew beautifully. Bruce

Thanks Kevin & Gil. I was under the impression that the sides were '3-piece', the rounded upper area, a flat area below to the bottom of the passenger door, and then an inward angled area meeting the flat bottom, but from your photo's it follows the normal 'flat sides and bottom 'convention. This is the shot I was using and you can see what I mean. Different cowlings and louvre shapes on all the shots too! Rgds: Jeff
