Without going into much emotion here.......

OUCH !!!

boy that sucks. I hate when you cant quite figure out what happened either!

As for a replacement - assuming quick and somewhat easy.... and relatively affordable..

The Cermark F-16 obviously - always a good choice.

Well, "I FEEL YOUR PAIN.". But sometimes a better setup can come of it. I stuffed this F20 on its maiden flight due to flutter on the elevator. After trimming it, I went way out their and throttled it up and there I was, balls to the walls at a 45 degree angle and never came out of it.

I took the engine out and what was left and found and old ultra sport a guy did not want and rebuilt it and recovered it and has been one sweet combo for a couple years now
