I'm still a rookie at this painting, but, it's coming along. Winds blowing 25-30mph out side so decided to do some painting. Hope to be able to fly next weekend!

Raf, email Anton and order direct from him, as I did. You can wire funds direct when it's ready to ship, delivery right to your door!

Joe,

I hope to have the painting done this week, so I can start first flights next weekend, weather permitting. I definitely want to have all the bugs worked out, so I can Turn & Burn in the Desert!

Thanks for the pics on the SM F-4, mine will be here this week; your analysis is appreciated in the light of the inappropriate critiques; I was looking for a "large" F-4, after building violetts'. This will do it, it seems. See you all at Florida Jets!

Hi.

You will be impressed with this F-4. I was very honest and straight forward in my analysis. Any weak ratings have already been addressed and fixed in the production models by SM (mine was a pre-production one). Mine is coming along nicer than I could have hoped for thanks to my friend Chip who is painting and detailing it.

I wish I could post more pictures right now but I think I'll hold off and just debut it at FJ. I think it will be a good showing. I will have it displayed in the JetCentral Booth so stop by and check it out as well as say hello to the gang.

Tommy is almost done with his Balck Bunny version as well as David S so we should have a few at FJ

Regards,

Adil

Adil,

I'll be putting first flights on mine in Phoenix this week. I'm going a couple days early, b4 the event ,to wring it out. Mine is a pre-production model as well, but I'm quite happy, also, with how it turned out. I'll post a flight report, hopefully with some inflight pics later this week. Uncle Joe, when will you be there? I need your skillz!!

Does anyone have a weight on a completed plane? What engines are you considering?
