Lindberg's 1:32 PT109 - Discontinued?

I just found the Micro Glass plans in my shop.  The Micro Glass 80' Elco hull comes with plans by A. P. Ross II for the PT 109.

CG Bob, if that is correct, they'll be pretty accurate. Al Ross has been an authority on the  PT Boat plans. I'm currently waiting on  a book he co-authored "Allied Coastal Forces of WWII" vol 2.

I believe the plans are by Al Ross.

Lindberg re-issues it every few years, shop around and you may find one or wait for the next re-issue

An alternative to the Lindberg PT109 is the 1:32 scale fiberglass hull sold by Micro Glass for $89.95.  You get a bare fiberglass hull and a nicely drawn set of plans.  Micro Glass also offers the Elco 77 footer and Higgins 78 footer hulls for the same price in 1:32 scale.   You will have to scratchbuild everything from the deck up. You'll also need to provide props, shafts, rudders, weapons and all the fittings.

IIRC on greatmodels.com  they had mentioned the kit was a limited production. I was thinking of ordering one myself.
 ok found it. (no link tho)  I had printed it out
