Yes you are correct, two futuras . I guess since Pete started this thread I'll show mine off which is one of the two in that crate, even before Pete shows his off!!! Audi is nice but the Martini scheme is sweet! JB220 for power!

So you saw mine at Super Jet South and had to have one just like it. Well, you know what they say about imitation

Love the Audi scheme. Is this something Tomahawk offers? I saw a really nice BMW scheme someone did also, but Audi's better vis.

I think Duncan Horlar (sp?) did the original Audi and BMW schemes for Ali a number of year's ago. He sold me the vinyl cutouts for my Futura. I think the scheme has been copied by others.

Craig,
I certainly saw your Futura in Georgia and I'm sure Pete did too.
You and Bob Rembert are the reason I ordered the large Futura. I love the way they fly.
I still have my small one but cant wait to fly its big brother

RCpete, I thought you already had the black Futura. I love this plane and all those guys that talk about the look, they are missing something great. Here is mine.

HI, I do have the Futuristic Futura, which was built for the sole reason, to be different, it is. The Audi design has been out for several years and still looks great. The Audi was bought to be built, under 36lbs, ready to fly, with a 50 lb turbine.
