New addition--SU- 27 Check it out!!!
Just finished up last night and ready to try out this weekend. It has a Jett 90 in it so it should pass up my patriot and f-20. Can't wait to find out.

RE: New addition--SU- 27 Check it out!!!
It is a kit from AKM Models. took about eight months to build. The kit is designed for retracts but I went with fixed gear. (ought of ease and cost) It was a challenging build definelty, should not be one of the first couple builds. I allso permantly connected the wings and fiberglassed it, to many curves for me to monokote. The great planes Planer was an invaluable tool, cut the sanding and carving time down by 80%.

Beauty of a plane!!!
I have a kit as well. Planned for building over the fall/winter. I might just expedite those plans
Which retracts did you install ? Spring Air or others?
If you could, please email me a few photos (preferably one with you in it too).
Perhaps some comments, prop selection, etc...
I will include them in the Jett Hall of Fame page
Thanks

You need to put your pics up on their webside, truly an exemplary build. Nice job.
I downloaded the manual and that is an INTENSE build!! Holy Smokes! That thing is a work of art.
What is the all up weight, seems like ALOT of balsa.

Some more pics. The bottom of the horiz. stabs have some white sprayed on already. The bottom will be white and the top Dove grey and the whole airplane dullcoated. The pilot is painted and ready.
EDIT: It has an OS91FX with Pitts muffler and pneumatic retracts.
