I am wondering if anyone has one, I heard of a couple people having them on order, but have not seen one yet.

Thanks

I have one I bought from a guy who partially completed it. I am just finishing it up. It is a nice plane but a lot of work since it was a short kit.

I wanted something a little smaller than the Baby Boomerang for a 14lb Wren 54. It is ideal for that size turbine.

I'm not sure the kits are being sold anymore.

Check out the Formost. It looks like a Five Jet or a Boomerang Elan but is an ARF.

LN-JET

I built one 2001-02, and flew my 100 or so first turbine flights on it. Wren mk1, Spring air HD,no brakes, Dubro 50oz, 11lbs empty.
I did the built up booms, but made airfoiled tail surfaces from foam and balsa.
Very good flyer, flaps are a must, as it glides well.
Another alternative to the Boomerang could be the Falcon 120?

Iam 99% sure the A-10X ARF is based on the 5 JET..... just add a canopy and presto A-10X

LN-JET

I would say no. Not more than it is based on any other twin boom trainer. Look at some of my construction pics:
