Nice going Shui.......
Extraordinary effort, and it has paid off for your team.
Look forward to talking to you next time we share a little airspace.
Congradulations.
Frank.

Way to go Dave! Congrats to you and your team. I can't think of a nicer person or better pilot to have earned this record.

You're lookin' good by the way! Keep it up.

Outstanding...[sm=thumbup.gif]

I have had the pleasure of watching Jeremy work on his Firebird and it is truly an outstanding product. Coupled with the competence of the team David has put together the airframe has achieved outstanding results.

This is very cool. Great job guys.

I would really like as much information as possible about the timing system used to meet FAI's requirement since I run a speed rally here in the states every year and get nothing but flack about using the Stalker radar gun from the Euro Cup guys for being inaccurate.

Thank you for shareing.

Nice job, Dave. We had no doubt that this airframe was able to obtain these speeds safely.

Congrats to all,

So when are you going to try for 400 mph David?

What will it take to get a Jet that fast?

Maybe in Denver?

What is the top speed for a r/c airplane currently?

I know the DS Sailplane guys are knocking at 400 (399 so far).

Congrats to all. But surely with all the care that was taken and preparation, surely somebody had a video camera. So please post some vidoes. Awesome job guys-well done.

Well David and Axel are busy with the airshow in the DR, but here's another pic of the celebs and one of the certificate. There is a video being worked on, but the first 'release' cause some puters to crash (mine was one of them and it's still not fixed, David's getting the repair bill).
