Ali,
Fantastic finish work. Would you send me the photos of the two planes so I can add them to my photo page of flying Victorys. Between you and Joe C you have taken the Victory to a look I never thought of. What a sport plane not everyones F-18. (F-18's are great to)

If you end up selling the plane would you let me know who got it I would like to make contact with all the Victory guys.

Rick

Hi guys,

what is included in the kit from Graupner,
I have seen following at acmejets webpage :

Basic Kit includes:

Fuse, wing, Stab, landing Gear, all bulkheads, windows, servo boxes

Is it the same from Graupner ? Say landing gear included ?

Hi Anders
My kits were very early pre production kits from Graupner. In them I got
fuselage, wing and tail moulding
CNC cut ply wood work set
Windows
Carbon flap hinges
and a U/c form Airtech

No fuel tank no hardware, and lots of work that needed doing by the builder to make it flyable. Nothing too taxing, and all worth it for such a wonderful flying model. i hope this helps?
Regards Al

The next kits are shown released by Graupner September 15th, with a manual! There is an outside chance kits will be at JP 2010...

Yes, the new kit should be a complete kit with door and hatch openings and all fittings yes. JP will be the place to find a real date...

Alit
I thought we built strong airframes but you have shown me that it is indeed the case. Did it scratch that great paint job?

Keep the plane about 6" higher next time. Great flying out of the situation, that was not luck but great flying.
