RE: It must have snowed in hell today...
Does anyone know why Bob did this?
I check the specs and they're almost identical for equivalent size engines. Does one have an advantage over the other? Wonder how he's going to differenciate the two lines. Thanks, Jon |

Wonder how he's going to differenciate the two lines. Thanks, Jon I think the customers will be able to differenciate between the two lines. Jet Central and Jet Cat both have a loyal following respectively. If this is true, BVM is simply broading their customer base by offering both alternatives. Its a good sound move for BVM from a business perspective imo. |
RE: It must have snowed in hell today...
Yeah...really...or maybe Uncle Bob can give me a franchise.
At this years event, I gave one guy my spare flex plates so he could continue to fly his Bandit...another guy a battery so he could fly his Bobcat (Kingcat?) and another guy I gave the nose wheel off of my Bobcat so he could fly his Bobcat for the rest of the meet. Sheesh! I'm runnin out of spares!!!! Beave [sm=bananahead.gif] ORIGINAL: AndyAndrews Since its snowing in hell now, maybe BVM will participate in KY Jets next year. |

RE: It must have snowed in hell today...
Even on Boeing jets you get a choice of engines..... GE, Pratt and Whitney..... Rolls Royce.
This should be a win win for both companies. |
RE: It must have snowed in hell today...
Hey birdman, I'm not tryimg to start a fight but you can't have it both ways. Your Barf/Falcon was a good combo but you trash Jet Central. I have 3 that run great. The only problems in 4 years was 1 ECU and 1 RPM sensor..Eric overnighted the parts. Can't beat that! The guys I have seen with problems were all self induced, gues you need to know what you are doing. I'm not a rep, show pilot or Grand Poopaw..I just fly my jets every weekend, without problems. If you don't want to fly Jet Central then buy brand X, there is no need to trash a good product.

*** Announcement***
<<< BVM and Futaba are pleased to announce that we will be working together to better serve your turbine radio system and accessory needs. BVM is now an authorized Futaba dealer for their full line of radios, receivers and accessories. BVM will be flying the radio systems in all of our factory demo models so that we can become a credible source of technical assistance. Customer requests and Futaba's superior FASST 2.4 technology makes this combination of products and talents a positive move toward serving the needs of turbine enthusiasts. We are excited that brownouts, bind plugs, etc., will now be relegated to the past for us and our customers. BVM is no longer a full service JR DSM dealer, as next year it seems JR will also be introducing FHSS systems >>> When I see THIS announcement I'll believe it snowed in hell! :D:D:D |

RE: It must have snowed in hell today...
A few years ago it was more like BVM and JetCat was the only right way to go acc. to BVM.
Everything else was crap. What would BVM say about Chinese ARFs and Mexican turbines a few years ago?? My guess is that BVM is now selling them because he has to, rather than because he wants to... My two ore... |
