Anybody know if plans were ever done for the Junior and/or if they are
available?

Yes they were ...

A company in Singapore (of all places) sold them for a while. Perhaps
Andresson (s?) sold them as well ..... I am not sure.

I have a couple of sheets from them but not a full set.

I don't know about the plans, but a Czech company LD Aviation Prague seems
to be about to produce an ultralight (LSA) version of this aircraft.

I believe a number of MFI-9HB are being built/ were built in Sweden. I
looked a few years ago at the EAA "status" report which indicated %
complete to date. I also have a few pages of the homebuilt version. I
love my Junior.

Interesting looking critter, that. Kind of reminds me of the "Cygnet"
(or some such name) a shoulder-winged homebuilt I saw in Carlisle eight
or nine years ago. Powered by a Great Plains VW.

Anybody know if theree is any relationship, one to the other?

Maybe the Cygnet was inspired by the Bolkow Junior. The Junior came out
as an all metal certified aircraft in the US in 1963. 0200A/ 850lbs/
125 mph aerobatic normal/utility aircraft. Rare.
