Old kit identification
Hello guys, new member here!
I have been wiewing this forum since the early beginning, and have gained much knowledge from your discussions.
My jet experience so far is from building a MW54 from the MK1 kit
two years ago, and flying it in a FiveJet last year. I had no previous D/F experience, and can highly recommend the FiveJet
as a first turbine aircraft.
I have been looking into used D/F planes or kits to put my turbine into, and recently came across an old Mig-15 kit.
The manufacturer is "Turbofan", and it is possibly British.
Wingspan:53" glass fuse, foam/abachi wings
Small pic of kit here: http://www.rchobby.org/rcmarked/imag...Xxwqtr0013.jpg
Does anyone have any knowledge of this kit?
I particulary like the Mig-15, and have read the threads about converting Byrons' with great interest. Are there other Migs that
would suit a 11-12Ib turbine?
Regards
Lars (will include avatar soon!)

Hi Lars,
Turbofan was handled by Jim Fox a few years ago, and was taken over by Jet style UK until recently (last year) but it looks like their site is down now......( http://www.tracyadam.karoo.net/ ) may be someone can tell us the real story?
Otherwise RS jets makes a short kit os a Mig15 and it looks like it is good value for the money! http://www.ukjets.org/news.html
