Default RE: Flew the MERLIN powered Kingcat today!

I witnessed the 2 flights today. I was impressed. The Merlin pushed the KingCat around with little effort. The vertical preformance was outstanding. Most of the flights were done at half throttle except when gong straight up. After a 12 minute flight the mains were used up and about 25 ounces left in the 50 ounce center tank.
