Ah they do tend to have a certain screech about them don't they? actually underground in an SAC bunker it's just right lol. Nothing is as bad as F-18's though they rattle windows.
Sorry not to get off topic. thats definitely a sweet looking bird. It's looks to be a pretty good size too maybe 1/2 scale? lol J/K the real ones are pretty small.

Vic I did not think you ever visited the jet forums. As for the test flight, I'm gonna skip work or Monday or Tuesday and head out to the dry lakebeds as long as I get the gears in. You want come a join us, if so let me know which day works for you.

Sung,
I've sat back quietly until now. I can't keep quiet any longer.

I think you should save your time and just crate the airplane up and send it to me. (with engines)

It'll save you a lot of aggravation and time. Imagine how dissappointed you would be if it doesn't fly well. I can save you the trouble.

Don't thank me.....I'm happy to help my fellow man...

I'll PM you my shipping address.

I just got into my office and saw your kind offer to help me out here. Unfortunately I am into suffering and gonna beat myself up. Other the other hand, there are other forms of abuse and pain that I am subjected to occasionally which I will not mind sending your way. I patiently await your address so I can send them to you. Thanks for your offer and kind wishes.

......Johnny....get in line buddy. The detailing that Henry of HVN Custom Models did on this plane is pretty outstanding. And there is gonna be another one right behind this one too. Should make for some really cool formation flights.
Take a look at all of the cockpict, and fuse details. 95% of everything is molded by Henry including the seats, cockpit tub, all of the bumps, blisters, intakes and vents, all fabricated and molded by Henry.
Fortunately for me, I get the honor/horror of putting the original prototype back together again, and finishing it up as the T-37 vs the A-37.

As a point of small interest, this plane is going to be 1/2 the weight of the prototype. (dont ask) Being lighter was not going to be the problem, but 1/2 the all up ready to fly weight has been a great acheivement on Henry's part..............thanks for making me lose my bet Henry, I didnt think you could do it.


Sig, btw its about 33% scale.
