I can also do the Wellington and the Beaufort at £3.50 each. I do not have a Mosquito by Towner but I do have one by Howard Boys for rubber power which is three sheets and costs £6.00
Postage is extra amount depending on the size of the order.
Hope this is useful. Ultimately I'd like to find out if there is a list of all the H J Towner plans that are known. I suspect this may only be available from his daughter but if anyone has anything to add it would be great to hear from them.
Cheers
