Don's screen name is listed first followed by his email address.
I have found that emailing Don is the fastest and easiest way to get in touch. He usually responds very quickly.
He is a good guy to work with. I have bought kits from him as well as sending him kits for replication.

Has any one been in contact with this guy? I am afraid I have been Scammed. I ordered and paid for a 33% 7 AC Champ kit from him over a year ago. He promised it last November 2022. It’s been over a year sense I paid and ordered it. Most of the posts here and other sites, say he is in California. I have an address for him in Grand Junction Colorado. Googled earth his address and there is nothing there but a small cabin. A very remote location. The local R C club and local hobby shop has never Hurd of him. He posts as Frequent Flier on this web site I ordered the kit under RCAiir.

Thank you yes I finally got a reaction from him, after another E Mail. Really gotten disappointed in his medical so called condition. I had order this before all this medical stuff surfaced. Promised me I would have my order in November of 2022. Never happened. A year later all this. Really don't know what to.beleave. all of this is very confusing why take on orders when you know your sick first heart condition then. A failed hip replacement with infection that could have killed him. that takes months in some cases years to get over and he is already doing things less than a month later after the surgery some thing aint right.

Hi AJ, if you want, I have a Hostetler Champ at 26% that I already cut or I can blow that up to 33% if you like, see if you can get a refund and then give me a shout,

I originally bought the RCM plans 33% but missed out on the windshield and fiberglass cowl that was offered. I Hurd about Don and many guys were very disappointed in the way he did business. I asked if he would sell me his scale windshield and cowl. He said no. Because of so many people copy his design. Then he said he had a kit for 650 on a 7 AC scale gear was extra. I thought about it. Sent him an unsigned check. By mistake. He called me and told me about the uncompleted check. And said my kit was ready to ship. I sent another check but nothing happened. I contacted him to see if it shipped. He said no , but by Nov 22 I would have it. No problem. That was two more months away. I said okay. Nothing happened. Then in December he claims he sent a message that the kit was ready but got no response from me. I said sent the kit. But nothing. You can see why I am so upset about all this. Nothing makes sense. I finally ordered a windshield and cowl from pro builder. Haven't started my 33 %. But plan too this winter. I fly a AA Industrues Nolsen design 1/4,scale now. Guess I need to be happy with it. Really disappointed in all.this I put out alot of money on this 33% Champ buying the engine and all and nothing to show for it.AJ.
