Hello, the maiden will be after summer, when the sun would be less hard, the owner live in the southeast of Spain and the very hot weather in that place make difficult enjoy of the hobby, we will wait for news, I'm really impatience for know the result.
As soon I have news I will show you photos.
Thanks for ask.

Carlos, that mirage is gorgeous! Nicely done! I look forward to reading about the successful first flights. The mirage III/V and Kfir are some of my favorite aircraft. Here's my Jet Hangar 120mm EDF Mirage IIIRS...just a little bit smaller than yours...

Dear all.
We are co-operating with Carlos/ CM Jets for the development of the Mirage III kit.
This will be the first of a series of unique airframes sold by Ultimate Jets.
Carlos will take care of the European market and Ultimate Jets of the rest of the World.
All the kits will be made on my production line in Dubai. This line is mostly dedicated at producing UAVs for the Middle-East market right now.
The kit will be produced as followed and will be using exactly the same techniques than the Mibo A-10:
Prepreg Kevlar fiber/ airex sandwich fuselage.
Prepreg carbon fiber/ airex wings.
All internal CNC cut in prepreg carbon fiber/ airex sandwich on my router.
Landing gear support structure made from plywood with flex plate structure.
Full electric landing gear and brakes.
I have invested in two CNC machine centers ( one lathe with ATC and one milling machine with ATC ) recently and one of my engineers is now working full tie on these machines.
The Mirage III gear will be 100% produced in-house and will use the same technology as the proven GZ retracts that we have been distributing for 3 years now.
An option for electtric speed brakes and canopy will also be available.
All the scale details ( landing gear mockup, cockpit and seat ) will be 3D laser printed on my machines in Dubai.
The kevlar tanks will be produced by Carlos and will integrate a new line of high flow fuel accessories that will be available from the shop next month, including a brand new type of fuel stopper.
The kit will be sold with a Tamjets exhaust tube and will be optimized for the Behotec JB-220.
I have started working on the CAD design of the internals and landing gear.
More about the progress of the first production kit in about 2 months from now.

Oli,
fantastic looking model - I'm very keen to buy one when available. I flew the 111 CZ in the 80's so my plan would be to paint it my old SAAF 2 Squadron colours (The Flying Cheetah's) - would look awesome!
Cheers,
Leon
