MB339 possible defect warning
None of the crashes involved excessive speed. They were caused by a defect in the construction of the stab, not too much speed. We never gave it more than 3/4 power and 95% of the time it was 1/2. The stab fell off on the finnal approach before landing.
The jet is more of an over sized maverick trainer than anything else. Also mine weighed 21 pounds with fuel I would not put a 12 lb thrust turbine in this jet.
Did you fly yours yet? I bet you find it very safe with a P80 in it for power.
Let me know how your's flys.
