RE: Florida jets Photos
James it would be helpful if you explained in more detail what caused the problems. With the hawk turbine shut down, did you not have a FOD screen ? What problems were cause by flying off the grass ? We all could benefit

Many jets with low intakes would suck in enough grass to make a bird nest in front of the turbine. You could smell burning grass whenn some jets were taking off from ingesting grass clippings.

Are you saying that on one taxi out and take off run the jet collected enough fod to kill the motor or was it a result of many flights ?

I make them! $350 plus shipping. Made in USA so they aren't cheap to make! All aluminum, and very light. Break down completely. Adjustable heights.
Having some more made now.

How fast you can ship one ? How big of a box is it and what about the weight ?

We have a clear canopy in development in the UK which the chaps at the factory will be fitting as an option very soon.
Cockpit tun needs fitting out though with pilot and cockpit detail though, any suggestions where we can get these?

I'm from Chile - South America but next week I'm going to be in Milwaukee so I was thinking to order one if you have one in stock. For sure I will order one for my next trip....

April would probably be an impossibility. They have a little fly in at Lakeland Linder in April. It's called Sun and Fun. It draws over 30,000 full scale aircraft and 150,000+ over the course of the event week.

Vin, it's true. The Vampire taxied out, turned for take off and rolled about 100' and quit. When we brought it back, the fod was solid grass. No air could get in at all. The same happened on the F16. It was like a giant vacuum. THe grass runway was fine...the clippings needed to be cleaned off.
