Monogram's Flying Sub Kit - still in production?

[captain nemo12]

After reading about Mark Jones' converted Monogram Flying Sub, I searched the web but couldn't find the kit, can anyone direct me to an online seller who sells this item? I don't know the scale of the kit and dimensions, thought I might use the micro Rc equipment in my Kilo to try bringing this kit to life.

Check with Rick Teskey in

Check with Rick Teskey in Ontario Canada. I noticed on Ray Masons new SubRegatta 2004 DVD video, Rick had a smaller hull (16") for FS-1 than the one he has been selling (24"). Now that Monogram kits are getting so expensive, Ricks hulls would be a good alternative. I am out of town so I don't have his email address handy but he posts here from time to time, or if you are a SC member - just check your membership roster.
