Beech Sundowner

Has anyone ever thought of designing a Beech Sundowner? I'm going to be flying one for my flight training, and I'd like to have one in the sim world to fly. So far I haven't been able to find anything on the fs download pages....anyone know of one somewhere, or have a hankering to build something?

thanks

My first airplane ride at age 12 was in a Sundowner.... I'd build one but can't find any decent 3 view drawings. Perhaps you could scan some from the POH for me?

Old thread here but I just found it again after I had lost it....

The plane is the the paint and interior shop right now, but when it's out I'll get the POH and scan some pages for you.

Duck: Nope, it's privately owned. N6508R if you want to read the specs.

It's fresh out of the paint shop with a beautiful paint job on it. Makes it look like a brand new plane. I recently took a trip to check up on the progress on the interior and took some pictures of the paint job. You can find them under "Beech Sundowner" here: http://community.webshots.com/user/jonathank
