Default The GP Space Walker

The Great Planes Space Walker must be the best plane you can buy.
With its superb looks and outstanding flying I would have to give the
plane a 10 out of a 10 score.
whether you are a beginner or the best pilot around the block
this plane flies like a dream. like the real thing, no modifications needed with this plane. Great Planes did a great job.
with an O.S. 91 SII four stroke or a O.S. 91FX w\Pitts muffler,
This plane is so beautiful.
I don't know how in the world that Tower is selling this plane for 200$
I would think that the plane would be
so popular that they would raise the price..
Here is the sad sad story, :cry:
I had a GP Space Walker and it was the best plane I had ever had.
Out of a Cap, FourStar or a Kwick FLY or a PT-19 85in
there was no comparison.
I was flying in a scale event to maybe impress my
sponsors and I was racking up perfect 10s I was on my way to winning with the GP Space Walker, Then it happened :cry: :cry: :cry:
A lost all radio control due to some people out of the club messing with the radio channels. ,,,,Maybe,,,,, Anyway OFF SUBJECT.
It slowly went down in a scale like bank, about a 25 degree turn down
and it hit and peaces flew 50 FT up,,, no joke,
and the wreckage had a 60 ft radios,, it was gone...:cry:
I had had more flight time on the bird then any other and won first place many times with the plane in different events and it was gone in a flash of sticks....
If anyone of you have un bonded with your Space Walker and live close around Washington and will sell me your Space Walker for 160$ I'll buy it.
If not I'll go to Tower Hobbies and buy one there.
I would recommend this plane to every body even "Dave"
I am a instructor and a flier of 5 years and I have never seen as good of a ARF or for that madder a plane in all my days of flying,,
I'm 15 and I am a crazy idiot about flying,, why do we love these planes so much? It must be Man's love of flying.
So all you people who want a plane that will live for years buy this plane.
I pray that Great Planes continues to sell enough of these planes
and does not quit making them...
