John, Yes he did. He also let me fly it and I can say it is an excellent airplane. It flies similar to the Bobcat but has a different, smoother feel to it. It snaps equally well inside and outside, unlike the Bobcat (It is hard to get a clean inside snap with the BC) It's real forte is slow flight you can drop the flaps to half and cruise around at about the same speed as a forty size trainer, or drop them to full flap and almost stop the airplane. Inverted flight only took a light touch of down elevator and slow rolls were easy. It is capable of a nice fast barn burner as well. The prototype has a P-120 on it and the power seemed just about right for it. I am looking forward to getting mine and getting it geared up for Superman. BV also had the Yellow and Blue KC in the box it looked great as well. The go fly price listed on BVM's website is for the kit, retracts, tanks, air systems and the usual complete airframe minus glue, radio gear and engine. Complain if you want about the price but there are quite a few of them already sold.
