The quality of this jet is amazing! The fit and finish is just superb. I am amazed how strong this thing is. You can grab the stab and squeeze it and it is rock solid. The wing and fuse are like tanks but real light. My T-Bird ready to fly was only 25 pounds. I has a look inside my wing after crashing the T-bird and was so impressed with the fit and glue joints. The wood in these kits is some of the hardest plywood I have seen on any model or ever that of Midwest aircraft ply. I swear you can play baseball with an ultra flash wing spar!
