(Click image for a larger view) | Aircraft Spruce & Speciality is the exclusive distributor for VP-1 materials kits. The Volksplane was designed and prototyped by Bud Evans in 1968. The aircraft is inexpensive, easy to build, and fun to fly. The fuselage is all wood, with three bulkheads, four longerons, flat plywood and some vertical stiffners. Wings are wood frames covered with fabric. The only parts requiring welding are the control stick, strut ends and stabilizer horn. The only sheetmetal work is in the elevator trim tab. Over 1000 of these single planes are flying. The aircraft is ideally suited for Volkswagen engines in the 1500 to 1834 cc range. Aircraft Spruce can supply complete materials kits from stock. Free kit list on request.
Note: Landing gear is NCNR, may not be cancelled or returned. Lead times are always 6-8 weeks.
Note: All Grove Aircraft landing gear is NON-CANCELLABLE/NON-RETURNABLE. For futher information on the Evans VP-1 contact:
