Hi Andy! Welcome to the Panther Cave. Glad to have you. At this time we are not planning to release plans for the spar plates or the welded fuselage. There are many reasons for this but the biggest one is the accuracy required for these two components is extremely high and the amount of effort to create these plan sheets for these highly detailed parts is not cost effective. The interest in plans building is not high. If in the future there is more of a demand we may do the plans for this, but there will be an additional charge for them.

My name is Andy! I live in Tyler, Texas which is about 90 miles east if Dallas. I recently discovered the panther and am considering plans building.

One of the points of consideration for me is I would like to do a complete build and weld my own fuselage. From my understanding the fuselage and spar are required purchases from SPA. Are there any plans in the future to release full plans for the builder to be able to construct their own?
