RE: CPLR new plane OSMOSE
Guys,
I talked to Chip in Phoenix in February. He was going overseas to do some UAV flying. he would be back in time for the NATS, but wasnt sure how much time he'd have to practice. He was still undecided on trying for the team. He sold his business. He is still doing some things with CA though. He's not getting out of R/C, only going overseas for work, and wasnt sure what his schedule would be. I've also had my issues with CA. I had an Eclipse a couple of years and had a problem with the canopy and getting a new one was a nightmare. Long story. I'll never own another CA airplane though. I dont see Chip getting out of R/C, but I think he has burned a few bridges. Personally I've gotten along with him, but certainly know of many who haven't. I've never dealt with him in a business sense though.
