How many kits do you have laying around?
I was thinking about this the otherday. How many jet kits do you have laying around that have never been built and what are they?
I have a friend that bought tons of jet kits and has them all in the boxes but only builds them like once every 5 years. He has a Byron Mig-15 NIB that has a shipping date of 1983 on it lol
I have a Jet Hangar Mirage in the box I have not started and a Starfire in primer but thats about it for me.
How about you guys?

JMP Starfire IIb unstarted
JMP F-4 Phantom wings 80% done (been that way for several years)
Byron F-16 bought about a year ago. I thought it was unstarted but some shoddy work has been done. I have a F/G inlet for it and intend to install a turbine in it

I didn't get his name but there was a guy at the DFW Jet Rodeo this weekend with a really nice F-16 with a RAM 1000. I later found out it was a converted Byron kit, it looked great, he had the scale gear and doors. I dont think he flew it, he was having engine problems while I was there.

I've only got a Folland Gnat Semi Kit and my new BVM T-33 as unstarted jet kits and the Paul Grey hawk 45 plan/pack.
However, if you include the foamies (Mirage electric two of, great deal!!) that is a few more.
Then there are the i/c kits and electrics, too many to mention.
Daft thing is that I want another cheap and cheerful jet to learn to fly turbines with!!!
