I got the Escapade when it first came out and before they issued the tech notice that's located on Great Planes site. Had about 15 flights untilI heard the all too familiar flutter. Throttled back but had no elevator as it flew into the trees. Inspecting the elevator showed that the joinerwas not glued at all. The bends that go into the elevator had enlarged the holes and cracked through the elevator. If I had it to do all over, I would redothe elevator joiner with epoxy, old school style.[link=http://www.greatplanes.com/techsupport/gpma1200tech.html]Tech Notice[/link]
