This is a fake plan offered on eBay by skystone01. 

 Please notice just how terrible this fake looks. 

I have scanned the name of the original plan and their is no title block as you can see. The plan was just on the edge of rescuing & restoring and has been saved for the fact that it has been stored rolled in a tube for a good part of its life. There was damage on the old fold lines but I was able to rescue this rare as hens teeth of a plan.   I put in 12 days of work just to restore this huge plan. At 10 feet long, there must be seveal hundred feet of lines. I even replaced all the words and numbers. This plan was a total redraw.

This is the Valkyrie taking to the sky.

HOLEY COW!  If I hadn't seen that with my 2 own eyes,

 I would never have believed it. Ailerons on a Free Flight model airplane!

Plans include this nice MAN article too from 1966.

In Old Norse, the word Valkyrjr, means "choosers of the slain". In Viking mythology, the Valkyrie were the nine daughters of Odin. At his wish, they flew their horses over Viking battlefields and choose who would die in the coming battle. After the carnage was over, they returned to the battlefield as a raven and selected the souls of half the warriors who had died an heroic death. (Crows often appeared after a battle to pick at the bodies of the dead.) The Valkyrie carried these souls to Valhalla- Odin's banquet hall in the heavenly realm of Asgard. The remaining heroic souls were taken by a Viking goddess named Freya as she passed over the battlefield in her cat-drawn chariot. The Valkyrie also rode over the sea to snatch dying Vikings from their doomed longships.

Just found your site, what a refreshing site!   I enjoyed it very much. 

I found your site as I was researching the Goldberg Valkyrie.  I have one hanging in my hobby store.  The fuse is complete, however, the wing has a break near the wing root, so I have that on a shelf.  I aquired the plane from a friend that was a distirbutor here in San Antonio, Texas.  The name of his company was Texas Hobby Dist.  They were in business for over 69 years, but succumbed due to the rosy economy we are enjoying now.

 

Just thought I would pass this info along. 

 

Thanks,
