The F15, F16, and F18 are always going to be in demand despite the fact that there are more competitors. It's the high cost that keeps the demand low. When Fly Eagle rolled out the F16, I thought that gees, don't we have enough F16s. But the reality proved me wrong. My idea of pickup planes for our club turned out to be almost a full time job for me trying to organize the orders and shipment, etc. Luckily, I have a lot of spare time at this moment and love doing that.

I talked to Fly Eagle's manager about the F18. They still need about 2 months of validation, flight test, etc. I am sure I would like to get their first prototype and test them out while I am still in China. I plan to get 2 Jet Joes and try them out on this F18. I heard that JET JOE is improving a lot, but I want to make sure they are ok before I stuff them in my BVM jets. If the F18 cost is low enough, I will take that risk.

My view about these factories competing is that it's all good for us and for them too. We won't be able to buy so many jets if the price don't come down so much. We are not afraid to fly more because the replacement cost is a lot lower.

Yes, BIGGER IS ALWAYS BETTER.
