Jimbo & Turbo glad to hear your sons are enjoying the Tamecat, it will
last them a long time and can do quite good in the aerobatics dept at
full throttle as well, a lot of the guys at the field where I fly still like to
get their hand on mine when I show up with it, does the most amazing
inverted flat spins.
First time in the 3 years I have owned my Tamecat, I landed a bit awkward
and pulled the nose gear out of it a couple weeks ago, I have since made the
upgrades that seem to have been made at the factory, plywood piece on the
floor at the nose gear and bolted the nose steering block in, it originally came
with machine screws attaching it to the bulkhead.
Hear's hoping they will continue to enjoy this rather spiffy looking trianer.

Bill,
Grandma came on picked the kids up for the week, so My son couldn't fly today.. I took it out and put two more flights on it, it's a fun airplane no doubt about it.. I was very impressed with it's aerobatic capabilities, going to try some of those IFS tomorrow..
Any secrets you want to offer on the inverted flat spins, do you need to add a lot of power to keep the fuse flat and hows the recovery, anyoppositerudder needed to stop the spin?
Jimbo
