Albatros_Ace,
As far as I know its the ICM Kit that has the best wings/body and engines (the aircraft had wooden battens at each wing rib).The Marquette kit has the correct wheels and you will need the windsock datafile to completly rebuild the tail.Having said all that I have seen many built Marquette kits on the web that were perfectly OK so depends on how critical you what to go..
