Things are too slow here...so I started to make my own L-39

Its 1/12 scale I designed it around the new E flite delta motor and fan combo.

Hope all is well!

Hey Justin, glad to hear from you!
Your L-39 looks great. What are the dimensions?
Will it be all fiber?
Keep me posted... Send more pictures.

Hope to see you soon, and take care too.

I had a lot of fun on my trip there to Venezuela! A very BIG thank you to Marcos, Franco, Andreas, Steven, Peter, Leo, Armando, Jack, Franco, Peter and the rest of the gang for making my trip so enjoyable.

The field was freshly paved and about 800' x 50' with no obstructions. I showed the guys that the gap in the tree line allowed for a really neat low pass that makes the jet look like it's lost in the jungle and then exits through the trees in the center of the field. I think those tree's may grab a few jets within the next 365 days? Hmmmm, only time will tell!

The piloting skills that I saw from everyone there really impressed me, in fact Franco Di Mauro started chasing me around the field flying formation which proved to be a lot of fun, we both got within 2" of the runway inverted and both flew through the tree gap right behind each other. Leo & Armando put their Bandit and BobCat to the limits as well and Leo borrowed the Flash for a flight and almost mirrored one of mine These guys really push their jet flying and do it with a bit of room/safety, and trust me, I've traveled enough and witnessed a few guys push their flying to the limit and were really beyond their level and on the verge of crashing, so I went away impressed and knowing that next year I'll have to develop some new tricks for them! ha ha

Thanks again guys, it was a great time! I have the calendar marked for next year's Jet Blast!!!!!

Some reason I can't get the photo uploader to work, will try and upload them later.
