Last few ones...
Fei Bao Mirage 2000 (I though it was quite nice). I believe the one outside is the Aviation Design one.
Another view of the Fly Eagle F-14.
The Tomahawk Design Futura... (beauty is in the eye of the beholder[8D])
Lastly, the Graupner Epic Victory. Flew very well and quite fast.

This was my first trip to JetPower and I am glad I visited. Friday was great for picture taking not so busy, Saturday was a killer. I was busy on the flight line helping Aviation Design and Behotec and the event is unbelievably well organized. I am still in the hotel in Bonn cannot upload yet but returning tomorrow and will upload some pictures. Have some video clips which will rerquire some editing.
Met many of the international pilots from around the world and many customers that otherwise I would never have met in my life.
One thing I must admit to when walking around and looking at the European manufacturers of kits up close, the quality and honesty to scale is way superior to other manufacturers anywhere else in the world.
I would return for sure. This year there were more manufacturers than last year and there was over 100 spots allocated to manufacturers to fly their products compared to 70 or so last year.
Great event, great show, great organization and amazing night time display with fireworks.

We have a new Behotec 70lbs (300N) thrust turbine just released with encased temp probe and burner as well as other products which will be updated on the website in a few days. We also have the new Mirage 2000 1/5 true to scale. Pictures will be uploaded in a couple of days.
Other suppliers will most likely announce on here as well.

Swing wing of Fei Bao F-14. I though the Fly Eagle one looked more sturdy. However the Fei Bao one was just a little better looking, not much.

Thanks for taking the time to share pics! Can you get some closer detailed shots of the FB F-14's swing wing and skin detail? The pics I have seen, seem to look like it is lacking panel lines, rivets, etc., but I'm not sure. Can you please verify.

New Jetcat P-20 available in March. 60mm total diameter and about 2.5kg of thrust, propane or kerosin start but no internal kerosin starter as its too small for that to fit inside. P-200SX was on display at the Jetcat booth.

The really big news I got:
Jetcat is getting new engines out. P-200SX, a small P-20 and some other in a near future ( couldn't get any more info at this stage ).
Weatronic and Graupner are signing a partnership. The Weatronic stand was amazingly busy...

Just finished unpacking after a fantastic JP, delays and traffic meant not home to 4.0am and back into office at 7! Great weekend, fantastic social side, business was different than last year, but still much better than two years ago.
Plenty of new (small stuff) will come through, people are only just getting home!

Great JetPower meeting with plenty of new things to see, friends to meet and fantastic weather.
I counted more new engines than have been mentioned so far.
Jets Munt Merlin 140 - an entirely new engine mid way in size between the Merlin 90 and Merlin 170.
Hawk 180 super efficient new high pressure engine from Hawk turbines
Behotec new 300 N engine
Prototype 2 stage engine with single axial flow stage driven by through the shaft second power turbine
Jet Central Mammoth
EVO Booster range from Orbit 90 130, and 160 sizes
Improved engines
Behotec 180 Gold with the new gold machined compressor
Gold Edition 180 Frank Turbine
Funsonic range completly updated and featuring brushless motor starters
Others not on display
Others have mentioned a new small JetCat engine but it was not on display
I too have developed a new small turbine that has a 60mm case dia. I showed it to a few people but it was not on general display. Currently this engine has 2.2 Kg thrust and nice low temperatures and has been flown, 4 have been built so far.

Back last night. Fantastic show. Spent a fortune. Great social event, as well as really good deals on models & turbines. It just gets better every year.

It was decided not to show the baby turbine from JC as it won't be on sale till the new year. When it's ready the information highway will have details, price will be good, electric start and new valves and ECU etc. It's a beauty...but please be patient, it was 3 years in the planning...
