Hello All from China,

So far things are going great! They understand what I am wanting from them! I have been very busy with them in the factory. GUYS...... If you EVER get a chance to come see just what goes into ONE model, You would look at it differently!! I have takin many notes and pictures and videos.
1. What a kit?? They are producing the GB as a kit now! As well as the Sbach, Edge, Yak...etc...
2. For now one the whell pants will be a ONE Piece.
3. The Cowl will have fiberglass around the cowl ring, and the FRONT WILL NOT BE CUT OUT! Some have complained about the curve not being correct.
For those of you that want to know, This is ALL cut out and sanded by HAND!
4. They are now sending ALL kits with Carbon fiber tubes
5. The fiberglass tubes are being doubled.
6. The Cowl is going to have more fiberglass.
7. The canopy is going to be a 2 piece.
8. They are making Oleo struts for all GB's
9. BETTER PACKING WILL BE DONE!!!
I hope this helps most of you! I have traveled 10,000 miles to help bring great products!!
Gerry,

Since we seem to be part of the factory's product development team (although we didn't know it at the time we bought into the plane) how about some upgrade or replacement program for the parts that need to be changed or replaced?
