Contact Robert Mudd, I think he has a Phoebus C stab.


Should also fit A and B models.

I donated a Phoebus horizontal to Robert Mudd a few years ago. Don't
know if the a,b, and c versions are different. Give him a call.

The 'C' wing is nothing more than an 'A' wing with a glove glued onto
the tip, so yes, you can use 'C' wings on an 'A' or 'B' model. One can
also remove the glove from a 'C' to make it an 'A' or 'B' wing.
BTW, I have one 'C' wing in new condition hanging from the rafters of
the barn. The rest of the ship was destroyed when something got loose
in the hold of the ship............oh, so many years ago!

My back remembers how heavy the A wings were on my Phoebus A 35 years
ago.....can't imagine wrestling with a "C" wing.....in the days before
"one man" rigging.
