The guy from Chicago is Dwayne Woods. He lurks here at times, maybe he'll chime in.
You might do a search for TGA turbine Mig and see what comes up. He posted pictures last summer.

I just got off the phone with Mr. Woods. He will chime in later tonight.

He goes by RCU handle BLINKY and a quick search shows the following threads titled "TGA Mig 29 (turbine converson)"

Hey Terry, what ever happened to the all composite Migs? All I've seen around or is listed on the web site is the older smooth version.

Steve at TGA has been busy getting various versions of the Dragonfly done, before that it was the Ultra Eagle III and IIID, before that it was the 1/6 Scale F-16 Viper.....................

Give Steve a call at 1800 tgajets and "BUG" him............

Tell him,"You wanna MIG -29 all Composite turbine version."[&:]

( I have one Hee Hee)[:-] Just gotta find time to finish it.

Take a look at the following thread where Mr. Woods chimed in and posted his phone #.
He posted into the wrong thread.
