Anybody know if the KMP B25 was discontinued? Don't see it listed anymore on Paul's KMP site.

KMP told me they do not make it as of now and if you call around you cant find them in stock anywhere. I needed a second set of wings and KMP found a old used pair for me. RCU has one for sale under the twin section. Its to bad, they made a great airplaine and now cant support it.

Well, that really bums me out. I'm in the process of building one. So if something goes bad, its Shxxts Creek without a paddle ehhh. So much for KMP products.

Thanks for the reply.

Regards,

Jim

I bought mine over a year ago—have not touched it, but I have everything for it—don’t think I’m gonna ever build it—kinda lazy. Was once selling it but changed my mind, may change it again.

I have too many planes in their boxes: B-25, Hangar 9 P-47 150, Hangar 9 Super Cub, KMP Cessna 337 (built but not flown), Gee Bee, ASM C-130 (semi-built), Long EZ 160, Lighting Dart (flying wing), and my Baby, Yellow Aircraft F-15 Turbine. See below: (that C-130 isn’t mine, but mine looks just like it)

Add another maiden to the list.

Flew mine last weekend.

Builder Dave Sult, did a fantastic job, including (as you can see) extensive mods to the nose and decals to match a real Pacific war vet, Robart 630/639 tri-gear, bomb bay doors

A little bit of a quartering crosswind.

Saito 100's and 14 X 7 MAS three-blades jerked it off the ground so fast I wasn't really ready to fly. Custom headers by my buddy Frank make the Saito's really snarl in the air.

Flew really nicely. Only about 8 minutes in the tanks, even though we fit 17.5 ozer's in there. Barely time to trim (two clicks up), cycle the gear and test the handling with flaps deployed. Must learn to get out of the throttle more!

Landed softly on first approach with full flaps, descent controlled with throttle till final flair, which showed good elevator response. Overall, a great flight.

Unfortunately crushed the left tail on the trailer ride home. Am trying to reconstruct but would rather get a new tail section. Anybody wanna split one of those on sale for parts?

Hey Kram:

Tried to fly mine earlier this week,only to have the head port for the elbow on the muffler strip out...It's a Mag 91FS..it's on it's way to globe hobbies for repair...Also was having a little problem with the right engine..below half throttle, there is a differance in RPM between the two..Ranging from 800-1000..have to re-tune the right engine..think the low speed needle is screwed in too much..Anyway like to make it up there when you have Multi-engine fun fly...Put me on your mailing list..BTW, my ASM P-61 is still awaiting it's maiden flight...Have one engine broken in and working on the other..will do as soon as this hot weather sub-sides..am using Saito's 62 FS..Nice running engines....Catch ya later

When I did the Falcon scheme for Marks B25 I had to repaint the entire tail section and had an automotive paint supplier I use mix the color I needed.
