Jimmie Allen - Skokie BA Cabin (Laser Cut)
Returning to our line up better than ever is one of the most victorious
model airplanes on the market, the Jimmie Allen Skokie. This plane,
also known as the B-A Cabin is an Easy Built Models Company original
and produced by us since 1938. Made for the British American Oil Company
Ltd. as a "Jimmie Allen" official contest plane, it was designed by
"Speed" Robertson. It won first place at the FAC 1999 Outdoor Champs.
Uses the Box and Former method for simplified
construction. Pre-1942 design, eligible for Society of Antique Modelers
(SAM) contests.
This free flight rubber powered kit contains a full-size
rolled plan, building and flying instructions, laser cut balsa
parts, hand-picked balsa strip wood, rubber motor, 8" propeller,
nose package, clear plastic for the windshield, wheels, landing gear,
Easy Built Lite colored tissue, and one pair
of TissueCal™ markings - lighter than press-on or water slide
decals because they are printed directly on the tissue. You will need
a building board, pins, hobby
knife, fine sandpaper, and glue.

"This is the Skokie. It was a fun airplane to build. I did change
the stab - on the plans it showed it being 2 piece and just glued
to the side of the fuse. We fly in a field that has a lot of stuff
to run into and I was afraid that it would not be strong enough so
I simply made it one piece and glued it to the top of the fuse. Right
now it is powered by 6 strands of 1/8, 20" long. We have only
got one flight on it with hand winds but it looks realy good. I think
it will work out to be a great flyer plus we really like the outline
of this model." - Mike Breen
