Default Another Facet is born

Facet 1200 with a MW-54. First jet so I'm really excited. Going to install the radio and turbine equipment today. Heading later this week to St.George for the Dixie Jet Rally. May have some installation questions later today. In case you couldn't tell, I'm a big fan of the Sig cougar and king cobra paint scheme.

Thanks for looking,


JC

Looks good JC. Is that paint or cover?

Hi George,

Its all monokote except for the sig decals. Not enough time for glass and paint. I sure like your camo facet. I cant believe the time it takes to stuff all the equipment in the facet. It has kept me busy all day, but I'm making progress. I guess the equipment installation in my next jet will go quicker, after this experience. Well back to the shop. Thanks everyone for the comments.

Jerry, That should be an excellent airplane at this altitude. I'm flying an Aviation Design F-16 with a Jet Cat P-120. It weighs almost 34 lbs and I have my hands full landing it. F-16's in general are a little difficult to land, it doesn't matter what kit you have. I would be interested to hear that wren run. Ya, I was concerned with my ECU hearing radio noise in my airplane. I moved my receiver as far away as I could from my ECU. What's your Email address I will send you some pics. My fax at home isn't working right now so I will have to fax from my work. Gary

Gary,

Let me know if you want to meet out there one of these weekends. I'll watch for your fax on Tuesday. It was windy down in Utah county today, so I had to fly my sig cougar with YS45 piped. Sig cougar flies great on any day. My email address is [email protected]. Send those pictures over I have a fast connection, size doesn't matter.

Later,


Jerry
