I bought that Sukhoi from him, and love it.

The complaint about the older (not the recently introduced) Cermark Sukhoi had to do with the inexpensive covering jobs and inadequate landing gear bracing. A buddy and I have 2 each. These old Sukhois, with a little paint, bracing and better hardware, are awesome flying, fast machines. We run 91 FX's in them. We bought the first ones because the cost was $120. Well worth it. I understand they were much more expensive when first introduced. (I bought Geistware's from him for $50)

Not for slow flying, though.

Good luck,
Dave Olson
