new sig arfs...sig displayed two new arfs at the sig fun fly in Montezuma,Ia June 9 and 10..the Waco and a P51....both looked awesome and they fly great...will be anxious for availablity.

I was there and am keeping my eye on the Waco.

I love Sig planes but for some reason they upset me by showing photos and advertising planes months before they become available. I was very interested in the new Waco and first saw it advertised 7 months ago. I have no idea when it will be available.

Very cute!

Yeah, seen the factory promo pics. Let's se the pics at the fly-in.

My LHS cancelled his order for the WACO. Sig keeps pushing the delivery date back. He got tired of waiting for delivery.

Last I heard, the delivery date is set for sometime in July.

Must be a slow boat from China...

the Waco looks really nice, would love to see more pics once they become available

Nice plane BUT
After 30 years in this hobby Sig is off my buy list forever.
I refuse to give my money to a company that hires people who pass off their design flaws as a customer's inexperience.
This is not the same company that I had dealt with for many years in the past. What a shame !

Happy Flying,

Tim

Another P-51! How mundane! What else can we look forward too...a J-3 Cub? Whatever happened to new ideas?

Any info/photos on the P-51???

Be happy. You have managed to out live most of the original owners of the various companies that you grew to love. I have a similar problem to yours, so you're not alone.

Where's:

Duke Fox
Tower's original owners
K&B's original crew
Phil Kraft/Jack Albrecht
Bob Dunn/Orbit
Ed Keck
EK Logictrol
Carl Goldberg
John Maloney/World Engines
Jim Goad/Indy R/C
Ed Thompson/Digitrio
Don Brown/DB radios and ARFs


and a host of others too long to mention.

Things certainly are different - but life goes on.

For those that don't know, it is not unusual for companies to begin advertising new products a few months before the products are available. If the response is poor to the advertising, products sometimes are not put into production.

I think Sig has some of the best made ARF's around, but they ARE still ARF's, and not as good as kitbuilt any time. I'll buy an ARF, but won't fly it as it comes out of the box; it's gonna get beefed up in at least two areas: firewall and landing gear.

As far as pics of an SRE goes, how 'bout the real thing? This is an SRE which was at Creve Coeur Airport this weekend. Magnificent machine. I didn't know until seeing the full scale that the wings aren't fabric. They are sheeted with wood, and were slick as glass. This one was once owned by Frank Borman(Apollo 8 astronaut, former prez of Eastern Airlines)

Here are some pictures of the Sig Waco taken this last weekend
