I ordered F100 from Chief Five months ago. The plane was ordered with wing tanks. The tanks were coming later as plane was in stock in China. Tanks were promised 12-14 weeks. I have completed plane and it is ready to fly except for wing tanks which still have no delivery date in sight. I do not want to fly plane without tanks. Anton please help with getting me the tanks so I can fly this great plane.

Regards,
Kevin Thoele

F-100's need drop tanks!!!

Anton Anything!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?????????????? Dana at chief says no info from factory!! I have a 5 month old ready to fly skymaster F100 with no tanks sitting on maiden until tanks come in. Maybe next year!!! or the year after!!! One day it might fly!!!

My BVM F-100 flew well without the tanks. I know not having the drop tanks is annoying, but why would that prevent you from maidening the plane? I've seen crashes from tanks coming off on maidens, so I wait until subsequent flights before loading up. Of course it's your plane and you can do what you want.

Regarding SM, have you tried contacting John, Skymaster's main customer service point of contact? His email address is: [email protected]

Sorry, I will discuss with John next Monday for your case.,

Hi Kevin

sorry for this delay.we will deliver as soon as possible.

Best regards

John

Thanks Anton, I want to balance and fly plane with the tanks. So I will wait for the tanks to arrive.

I understand while you can fly plane without the tanks. I like the visibility of the tanks and they aid in drag in the landing pattern.

I look forward to receiving the tanks

John

When should I expect tanks to ship?

Thanks

Hi Kevin

we will ship them out next week.

Best regards

John

Thanks John I look forward to receiving and getting the F100 test flown

Are we still shipping this week? Thanks excited to fly the Skymaster F100. Maidened a friends Skymaster F14 yesterday and had a ball flying that one. Great machine

Dana
