The Extra Testical........
Dude...the F-4 is the last of the John Wayne Jets. It flies as close to the full-scale version as anything I have ever flown. Look forward to sportin' some serious wood!

Dude

I can hardly wait to get her airborne. I know it's gonna rock. Vernon Montgomery let me fly his venerable F-4 years ago. it was awesome!!

It actually fits in my truck!!! wooo hooo, no trailer required.

Buck,

That's a nice bird, but I think it needs a little VMFA 531 tail art and some grey paint.

I saw one of Joe's Rhinos in Toledo back in 97 or so. The one done up in the Hawaii ANG colors and it was absolutely stunning. I think he got offers of $25,000+ if I heard right. Truly a masterpiece.

Hmmm, I just happen to have a spare set of those exact (VMFA 531) markings (Aeroloft) laying around for the big Rhino ...

Hey Buck

Thats a cool new ride you have there. I got a chance to play with Peter Weiss at Florida Jets 04 man is it sweet.
The Titan is more then you need it flew great on a 26lbs Ram 1000.

The Nose Wheel strut extending for takeoff with air is cool and it worked great Peter went all out and made a slat on the rear Stab for airflow at High AOA.

Happy Holidays

It's about time you blew off that old F18 and got a real jet. Tired of chaising mine around last year?? Look forward to seeing it.

Hey guys, is that really a byron Kit?

Could you post some specs on it? Wingspan, length, pricing, and most importantly where to get it? There's hardly a close to scale F-4 available (apart from CJM and BVM, only the Yellow comes close to looking F-4)......the one on the pics looks about right

Thanks
Hank

Found it:

CUSTOMER SERVICE - HOURS OF OPERATION
MON. - FRI. 9:00 A.M. TO 5:00 P.M. (Eastern Time, USA)
TEL 407-327-6333 OR FAX 407-327-5020

Good luck...

I thought it was the Top Flight kit with the prop hidden?

Kenny, you are gonna have to repent someday.

I thought maybe it was one of the new camo folding props.

There is nothing meaner looking than a charging Rhino!

Surely, you did not trade spleen for it did you? You only got one of those. I figured an F-4 was going for more like a kidney or lung....[&:]
I could certainly trade my testicles they just cause trouble anyways, I could use the F-4 more anyways....LOL

Sorry to get in so late on this thread! Awesome rhino Buck, but some of us know you're not qualified for such a complicated machine, you do know that this does not have autopilot right?

Read the manual!!

But don't ask David for any help, he's useless unless you're asking about mixing popcorn and potato guns ) Or spot landing bleachers. I hear he took everyone's money on that one!

Merry X-mas guys! Look forward to seeing this one in '05!!

Just plain awesome Buck. Now maybe we can dis Duke into pulling my old Tom Cook D model off the ceiling and getting it turbinized. Wishing a Happy Festivus to everyone. Aloha,

Woody.

A Rhino doesn't need a reason....It will kill you because you're there!!!!
