Status: offline 		Limited info as I just asked Andrew about it last night and they are flying a recent proto in UT with the changes that he requested and from the sounds of it, the design work is done. As for delivery or such, no clue, didn't ask.

We do not know about the 2M Osiris.  This model may be available from another manufacture in the future.

I sincerely hope someone produces the 2M Osiris, however!

For the upcoming season, the 2M EF Vanquish seems to be in stock now. Great model for the money!

Status: offline 		We showed a production line Osiris at the AMA show as one of the three raffle raffle prize airplanes ( you can still buy tickets) Andrew said, if I remember correctly summeriish or before I think. I am glad they didn't release it when it wasn't ready. Be assured its not because of anything but that Andrew wants it to make weight easily, and that he wants it to fly really good. Which I am sure it will. I think they will sell a huge load of them when it does come out.

It was light and well built. Looked really good to me. And I checked it over pretty good.

Bob,

From this angle, the wings look truncated. What's the span on this plane?

It takes time. He's already in full preparation mode for South Africa next year. He's headed to the WC on a mission!

I dunno, Matt.... telephoto compression in effect... probably 74-75in like most pattern....

Looks very similar in profile to Proteus per papaone photos.

Status: offline 		It's not available till you hear otherwise and may never be. To the best of my knowledge. The design lifespan of something in pattern is relatively short. It's tough for the manufacturers and the dealers to produce a low cost pattern plane and have any margin. That's why you don't see a lot of them available.

I didn't say that. I just said Andrew has other things on his mind right now, and didn't want the details to be shared yet.

Status: offline 		Well I have been looking for any bit of information that might keep me from going with another product.   The 62" Osiris is my all time favorite airplane, and is what got me into pattern in the first place.

Between my AJ Slicks  and my Osiris, there is a reason I have held out for so long, to fly Andrew's 2M

I understand there is very little profit on these types of planes, which probably explains the lack of support and info from the dealers, designers.......


I guess this is the best place to find out if this plane will ever be sold.  I will hang in there for a bit, but I am really starting to look into the 2M Vanquish.

Status: online 		That said, if you've never built a composite plane before, the Vanquish is a much faster path to getting a bird in the air, just re-in force the LG plate with some 1/8-3/16" birch ply with the grain going longitudinally to complement the horizontally aligned grain of the existing plate, pop the existing blind nuts out of the LG plate, use 30 minute epoxy, or, even better, aeropoxy or vpoxy, and pull the sandwich together by re-using the blind nuts under the new plate. Quadruples the strength, otherwise one bad landing and your gear will rip out which really puts a damper on your competition day! (Bad landings happen most often in the nervousness of competition when you try to force a landing to get some points rather than taking the 0 and bringing the plane around...

Status: offline 		Monolog is not composite Peter. Just FYI..
Both are fine planes. I would be surprised if we don't see the Osiris somewhere in the future. Doesn't matter if its a modern design really when it comes out. It's not going to be sold to most fai pilots anyway. The market for it would be sportsman through masters. Same with all wood built planes. Ad many of us in that market don't care if the design is a year or two old. If it is priced low and is available, it will have a market IMO.

I like the ease of info that is available with the 2M Vanquish.  Lot's of setups, and pilots. 

I am sure if the 2M Osiris ever made it out, there would be great threads on it as well.
