Default First flight L-39 Tomahawk

Hello everybody,

beginning this week I`ve done my first flight with my new L-39 from Tomahawk.

Great it flyes perfekt with the new Frank Turbine FT 220 with 21kg of thrust. System weight of this turbine is 1595 Gramm.

Just some impressions of the L-39

Regards Peter

Congratulations Peter, Plane looks good.

I am in the process of finishing mine with just the motor installation left to do. I hope to fly it in the next few weeks. How did you go about checking the balance on a plane of this size ?

The age of the big jets looks like an easy and effortless maiden flight also love the movie intro
