I got MODEL BUILDER PLANS CATALOG #1 and they have some interesting rubber 
powered airplane plans.  None are peanut scale, but they look interesting.  
Well, some of the plans are old (from the 30's!) so for you sentimental
types it's worth looking into.

I bought their Bunker Boat plans that were redone from the late fifties.
They're timeless, ageless wonders still!

BTW, they also have these plans for a miniature helium balloon!  It's suppose
to work with R/C (well, I guess this should be in R/C but the balloon is
scale).  Curious indeed!
