Wowwwwwww!!! I can't believe Fly Eagle would do nothing... Take notes manufactures this is how not to make money. Playing the short game only last so long. Then Boom boycotting your product. Sad really. I was so into there Vampire...

Anyone know if the US is FEJ's largest market?
It's hard to tell as their US market share is shrinking by the hour!

If this goes on much longer, FEJ sales in Liechtenstein (62 sq miles & 34,000 residents) will outstrip US orders.

Really at this point if they offered dantley anything out would be for damage control and nothing more. This has escalated to the point where trust ids gone and damage done. Why would anyone believe that even if they did right on this airplane that anything would really change? Sadly at this point either fej is done or they aren't, the people who will continue to support and buy from them don't care about this thread. There will be a slew of people mad about this that will continue to support fej. All one can really do now is educate people as to the history of fej. To expect anything else outs naive at best. Good job fly eagle, I knew it was just a matter of time before your true quality came through again.
By the way, despite what many think, your paint jobs suck.

Hope so, as we need to remain self-regulated, this "company" has proven itself to be irresponsible with its poorly engineered products, lack of customer service, and it's reluctance to make-safe the airframes that are already, or soon to be flying around the world. I'm sure not many model jet pilots here would like to see the FAA step in and regulate however they see fit our collective pastime following a serious accident, not to mention the legal profession casting a WIDE net !!! As has been mentioned, these model aircraft have reached a size/speed that requires a little more knowledge/engineering/testing protocol, than it seems FEJ are either not willing, or simply incapable of bringing to the table. Would anyone reading have any doubt which model discipline the FAA/politicians would get in their sights first ?

UPDATE
I got an email from James at Fly Eagle this morning saying the factory will do nothing.
Wow, though I can't say that I'm surprised.
Andy's idea is looking better all the time.

Regards,

Jim
I like it. I got a quote at wristbandconnection.com. 100 wristbands fot $89.

.Get them Dantley and I'll pay for them.

BTW get this going on the rcjetaddiction site also.
The ribbons have a certain elegance but the wristbands will last longer and something tells me that we're in for the long haul. That's OK, many of us have been in the hobby for decades and we're not going anywhere.

Rei, very generous of you; I'll gladly pay for mine
Dantley, make my shirt red please. Size XL. Let me know how much $ please.

See you at Top Gun!

Regards,

Jim

Lets get all these before Top Gun!!!!!!

So far, at least six of us will be wearing these shirts at Top Gun. That will make one heck of a group photo and certainly worthy of publication and even more bad press for FEJ.

Dantley, I wear XL and my son M. Armbands for both of us as well. BTW get me an extra M for a friend.

Let me know what I owe you.

This is incredible that FEJ has let it go this far. I was ready to order a Vampire. Spoke to Lowell about it but now I am definitely not supporting this company in any way. Sorry about that Lowell, nothing personal.

Black shirts are good too and are consistant with our avatars. You better order a bunch as there's sure to be a "fire sale". I'll take two in XL as a buddy of mine wants one too!

Jim

I like the black ones too. It matches the boycott theme of blacklisting a company that refuses to do what is right. I'm glad to see fellow jet flyers stand up for each other. Too many people have been screwed by this company. It's successes, if any can only be attributed to their trampling the backs of the customers who bought their defective products thus financing them forward to this point.

It's time to end this.

Someone suggested adding a broken jet on the back. What do you guys think?

Dantley's a good man and a GREAT model jet pilot with many friends, I believe FEJ will come to regret their policies and how they have chosen to handle this, put me in for a couple XXL's !!!!

Either that or a mushroom cloud on the back.

Dantley,

Yes, for sure. Make it an F-14 40 degrees nose down shedding parts...
