To all of you wondering about Dave Patrick Models:
I called Cermark and got this straight from the horses mouth. No, Dave Patrick is not ill. He is well and doing just fine. And yes, Cermark is in the process of bringing back the Dave Patrick line of ARF aircraft. This was exciting news for me, as I'm sure it is for most of you. They said right now the delay is in manufacturing, for some reason( I didn't get all the juicy details) there's some sort of red tape their going through in getting the ball rolling in full force. But it's definitely in the process. I was also told that more than likely, the first plane out will be the CUB then the others will follow. So keep your eye out for them. I imagine they're pushing to roll out something off the assembly line by the holiday season. So long RCers. Keep you feet on the ground and your eyes in the sky!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
From what I remember about Cermarks response is that they were going to re-introduce the DP Super Cub but were not interested in any of teh others such as the Ultimate. That about finished it up for me. Wow. that would bring the nimber of Cub offerings to slightly less than 10 million.
I must admit I love my DPM Super Cub and if it was reproduced I'd buy a second one... but saying that I've got doubts that it'll ever come to fruition. Nothing about Dave seems to be on the level and Cermark have been less than keen to show any photos of the prototype they claim has been designed. Plus the original DPM Super Cub was perfect in construction, so why would you need to make a prototype with a delay on changes. I guess only time will tell.
