Like I said there are many simialr kits out there, tend to be pricey and tough to assemble.

there is a kit of a fokker eindecker at my local hobby shop that is all PE. i believe it is aa product of edwards. Guess one could check out there website and see.

and here I was up all night wondering if it was really possible!!! Thanks for sharing MMF!!!

Saturday at the show in Richmond, some guy entered a PE kit of a tiny 1/160 (!) Gee-Bee R-1! The thing was phenomenal, but complete with ribs, bulkheads, supports, seatbelts and a control stick that came up right in front of the tiny seat! I unfotunately can't remember the manufacturer of the kit, but it was totally PE.

Can't see the pics.... but would like too.

Yes, you could.

Over here there are many pure PE kits out consisting of planes, cars, trains, insects, Dinosaurs they vary from skinned to the internals only.

Said that most of them are rather small scale (HO and similar).

Here are some samples that I could easily find:

I don't know if PE would be strong enough, it seems to bend everytime I touch it at least. I guess if you actually made every single rib it might hold up, but I think that it would be better to make the ribs styrene stock, and the rest PE. Just an idea anyway.
