I did not necessarily want to criticize him, I was targeting the guy that blasted me on the jets list after I said " I thought it would never fly". I kind of thought this would drag him out.

It is an awesome model.

I just can't see putting all that money in a static display model. If you have no intention to fly it, why put all the bells and whistles on it, and hang it out on the flight line at every event giving the illusion it will be flown. Rumors of it being done have been around since it was in construction.

There has been stories of why it hasn't flown, this and that. Why not put it up for all to see, and say"hey its not going to fly" on there web page. Personally, like I said, I think it will never fly.
I just don't see the big deal with owning up to it, instead of, all the hype and stories of when and "if".

My 2 cents.......
