New Crescent Bullet Kit
Anyone remember this fine flying 40 size model?
Now being done as a kit again.
I had two in the early 80s.
One shot down, the other retired somewhat oil soaked.

have only just seen this thread, this is my Bullet built from the newly released kit. Almost complete and hoping to test fly in the next couple of weeks.

You could be in luck again as i think PB models are talking to an Australian agent about distributing them over there. Mine is now all but complete, really looking forward to getting it in the air!

Thanks Pete, not getting enough spare time to finish it at the moment but it is very near to completion. Biggest job left is the canopy . . . . . one of my two biggest hates in building! that and hinging! would be well worth the money Pete.

heh, we used to put O.S. 40 vf's into them, with a Ranjit Phelan "magic muffler". They used to HONK! (both literally and figuratively!)
