Thanks Wagner! All I can do is look at my Panther as we have 2 feet of snow here. She's about ready though.

Wagner,
I will get some video of the panther with in the next two weeks. I would have liked to get another flight in, but as you know I had an air leak ( still need to fix) and didnt want to go back up until she was right. I want to thank Boli for doing a Fantastic job flying my bird around. I can count on the fact that she is trimmed out right now. Thanks again

Travis,

Congrats on putting together such a great flying jet. I really enjoyed flying the Panther and and look forward to flying with you some more soon over in Cape Coral. Wagner, you guys have a real winner with the F9F...it's a real great jet platform and anyone who gets one will see first hand what a winner it is.

I really wish I had not flown it because now I want one too...thanks!

Beave

PS. Oh BTW, Uh...Dom...uh...ahem...it's the bomb baby!!!!!

The video looked great. A classic looking bird for sure. I could not believe how slow she landed. I just took the cover (I keep my jets covered while I am building) off mine to look at it. What a beautiful model. I really can't wait to fly it. However I am begining my love afair with the L-39 too. Too many awesome Fei Bao jets to choose from. I guess I will have to have one of each

All I can say is that she flys like a dream with the Jet Central Super Eagle.
