HITS
Great price on a turbine ready jet
Plane is built stout
The ability for the average pilot to "rebuild" crash damage (free wood parts)
Plane builds easy
Alignment lines on turbine rails
Great looking wood jet with a great covering job
Servos are pre installed and require little adjustment
Landing gear pre installed and worked properly
You can order custom schemes from the factory at a minimal cost!! just contact Tony at [email protected]
Misses
Fuel line too small for todays turbines
Vent has no way to hook "taxi" tank to it
Would have liked to seen the TR version come with a UAT installed from the factory
Air lines are too close in color for easy no mistake connection at wing root
Have to remove the bottom panel with four screws every time for wing removal and install
Not enough clearance in wing root for wires and air lines to clear easily or enough slack to hook them up very easily
Pricing from Chief Aircraft and direct From Pilot as follows
Tailpipe Only: $1,099.00
Tailpipe & Landing Gear: $1,599.00

Shipping from Tony was in the same area if I remember correctly. Had mine in under two weeks. ( just to keep in mind in between containers, or custom schemes)
