Default FLy Eagle Jet Models

I was wondering if anyone has purchased/flown/built.... any models from www.Flyeaglejet.com

I was looking at their website and the price includes the retracts, ss tail pipe and other hardware which makes it extremely price competitive with the SM, TJ....

Regards,

I just fired an email, hopefully they will respond quickly. I would rather deal with someone here that over there due to time difference.

Read the fine print under the on sale items. Prices go up next year. Then there's the price to ship it. If you want to save the shipping cost then go by ship. Should take several weeks. Not really competative at all IMO. If they make more interesting jets like the AT3 in the future, then it would be more intersesting for me to take a chance on this aircraft maker.

Have you checked the videos??? the guys fly from open streets and highways! The F15 and F16 seems to be SM clones but the Rafale appears to be smaller, a new model?

Yeh I saw the videos, What if one of those trucks decided to speed up a bit
The F-15 and F-16 look like SM but the Rafale looks like (size wise) the one that extreme jets sells.

I am trying to convince the wife that I need one of each[sm=lol.gif][sm=lol.gif]

Looks like a real bargain. Has anyone seen one of their kits? Who's going to be the first to order one?

Hey Joe,

I have got it locked and loaded.......[sm=wink_smile.gif] As soon as I get a response back from them I will place an order. I am looking at the F-16, F15 and the Rafale. I have a Byron F-16 that I am refurbishing for Turbine, but I may leave it as DF. I also have a TGA F-15 which needs to be revamped inside and out[sm=lol.gif]

Ok Guys, I placed an order for the F-15 and the F-16 last night. I should have them by 12/10. I will let you guys know of workmanship and material quality when I get them. They told me I was the First US customer and as I placed my order someone else had just placed an order.

Regards,
Mike

I am French and I ordered, this morning, one F16 tiger meet.
It's for a simjet 1200 AES
I would inform you as reception (approximately 10 days)

Greetings,

Mike,

Which is the best way to pay for it; credit card, Paypal, or wire?

Did you get any break on shipping by ordering two?

Hi Joe,

The best way is to send them an email with your requirement and they will send you an invoice via paypal. I got a little break but not much. Hope that helps.

I just got one 1/8 F-16, pretty good quality, complete hardware, I am building it and I think this factory QC better than SM, I own SM F-22 and F-18 I paid first class price but got 3rd class quality.

I think you should be happy to get one.

Anyone else order one? I'm about ready to order an F-16, just awaiting some more feedback.

Mike/Sebastien/Tw3dguy,

Please let us know how they are about keeping you informed of the status of your order. Were you notified when it was shipped and provided with a tracking number? Delivered on time, etc.?

Hi Guys,

Wait up before you order. I am going to visit them and check out their factory next week. If you are going to buy from them, let me know. I am going to buy some and put them in my other business' shipping containers back to USA. If you want to, you can bundle with my order as well. Send me a PM if you are interested in this way. I run plastic and medical factories in China with containers going back to USA and Europe regularly, so I frequently buy stuff in Asia and ship back home on these containers.

Hi Buck, long time no see. I am working on a F18 and need to choose some paint scheme. What's your full-scale F18 look like? Can I stuff a little Buck in my F18 cockpit? what's your call sign? Can I put your name on the canopy?

I'm anxiously awaiting additional feedback on these kits since I am considering ordering an F-16.

TW3DGUY,
How is the build progressing? Any issues?

autorot,
Have you been notified of shipment and tracking number yet?

USSCAT,
Same question as above. Seems they should have shipped it by today if you are to receive it by 12/10.

mikedenilin,
When are you leaving for China? I'm very interested in your findings.
