I admit, it was me. I snuck in and fixed all the stabs so we didnt have an accident. The models were not used to flying that long so they flamed out. Usually they crash in 3 minutes.

My favorite so far....

Hmmmmm. In life, in general, regardless of the instance or circumstance, WHEN was the last time something REALLY unusual, extraordinary, or just freaking Bizarre happened to you and you kept your mouth shut, didn't tell a soul, for days, weeks or months?
Scratch that, how about HOURS? Someone found a really suspicious note in their airplane one day in March and he Finally decides to share that incredible piece of literature with a "pal" on a windy day in May? UFB ! What a shame. Think of all the stories we missed by someone's lack of effort. One last thing. The "grass clippings" at Florida Jets...........Imagine how pithed I was after I just spent $850, two days before the event, to have that freaking field VACUUMED!!! Hopefully when I place my beef with the city of Lakeland they will give me a partial refund for that guy missing a spot! You know what? Some of these accusations and comments are actually funny. Go back and read them in about a week, you'll be laughing your athhes off.

Are you sure it was grass clippings? What kind? Sounds like something they were smoking to come up with this soap opera.

Wow! And I thought FEJ sunk to an all-time low when they had one of their employees pose as a satisfied customer in a different thread just about two weeks ago.

This BS claim far out-weights that other blunder by a long shot!!
This is the vilest, most far-fetched, ludicrous, and desperate attempt they could make to cover-up for their inadequacies as a jet company, and as human beings! What a disgrace !!!

FEJ is really digging their graves deeper and deeper all the time.

What will those arrogant kids think of next!

They are getting more pathetic every day. I guess they plan on going out of business in a fireball.

These attacks are indicative of the last & desperate measures of a company that is spiraling out of control and sinking fast. Their management is now in complete chaos, as indicated by their most recent actions, and this false claim. I would not advise anyone who is waiting on a jet from this company to send them more money in the hopes that their jet is almost ready to be shipped. I doubt anyone will be getting their long-awaited jet at this point.

I don't want to give FEJ any ideas, but I wouldn't be surprised if they claim that one of them committed suicide due to these topics. Now that I wrote this, they will have to come up with a different, and more drastic idea. [8D]

How does someone find "LOL" in their jet and not take picture of it? In this day and age of camera phones there was no evidence?
Come on now.

If you bought a jet and it did not fly, would you want a refund.

This has got to be the workings of the Decepticons! I bet Starscream flew in undetected and put robot piss in all their fuel tanks. Better call Optimus to the case!

SORRY GUYS  This subject has hijacked RCU for quite a time.  I am three years into flying planes and have a comparf 2.6 yak, built and flown by me for the second season atm.  I also have a friend that is a builder.  I am a natural born mechanic and we bump heads all the time.  The one basic thing that i listen to him about is that if you buy cheap equipment you will loose your ass in the long run.   Hate to say this, but why did people buy this jet in the first place.  Was it cheaper?  I am sure that maybe a few bought FEJ because they were the only one with a particular airframe???
Does not appear that FEJ is going to do anything about the issues at this time.  Perhaps the AMA should ban the FEJ jets from sanctioned events and pull the waivers of anyone flying a FEJ jet
This will hurt a lot of people with FEJ planes that do not have problems (IF THEY EXIST)
Also, we are basically assembling expiremental aircraft, does not matter if they are big or small, but i am sure that many issues really have a hard time being locked down to what actually happened. Don"t see how the manufacturer can be expected to make huge refunds when there are numerous little things that can cause a loss.  Ive seen the films and know there was a issue with the elevators! 
How much negative publicity do we as a group have to publish every day before the wrong set of eyes see it and try to take the right to fly a turbine away from everyone.

people that dont read the complete article should.  I was saying how ama banning the jets would hurt a lot of people.  I do not want that to happen, but all this negative attention will not make things any easier for us People that fly
