I've inquired via direct to Gunderson and there has been NO effort to respond.

Interesting.

Thanks.
With the total lack of response in mind , I'd have to conclude that they've completely lost interest in the project.

So it goes I guess.

I am very sorry that I have missed your attempts to contact me. Our web hosting has been causing a lot of grief between the website going down and hundreds of lost emails. As a result of the problems with email, I have not seen any notifications of posts on this forum or my PM's. Again, I apologize for the delay.

In a short answer to your question, yes we still offer the full line of Pitts kits and accessories and I will be happy to answer any questions that you have on the kits.

I will reply to your PM right now.

Thanks for your understanding.

Rich

Status: offline 		We are approaching the end of another building season (in the Northern hemisphere anyway), and I hope that people have been hard at work on finishing their Pitts. Over the winter I emailed hundreds of copies of the plans out to eager builders, and I want to be the first to ask you to share the progress that you have made so far. I want to hear your build stories, and most of all I want to see your pictures and videos! Anyone want to share?

Sure . I know about two planes in Russia. One is my and other in Siberia, built by Chieff, not ready yet. Here is my Pitts. I've received PDF plans in october 2007 and started to to build. Has maiden yesterday. The engine is 38cc chainsaw conversion with advanced CDI, prop 18-10. Underpowered . I will try to change prop for 20-8 first, if it will not help I will think about 50 cc engine. Also I added flying wires to wings and stab. Landing is a DREAM! Good plane, a lot of thank's, rgunder!

That's a great looking bird El Chupacabra! What was the final weight of the airframe? Are you flying without a canopy?

I´m from bavaria and building the fuselage at the moment. My question is: Is there a flightvideo of your Pitts M12 or can you make one?

Thanks a lot
