The picture on the ad shows the relative size of the four different shuttles. The smallest shuttle will ship as soon as we get the SRB tubes, which are on backorder, but should be in within two weeks. The other three are still in development, and we are soliciting investment money to speed up the process. I am getting $135,000 from a lawsuit settlement, but it won't get to me for another 45 days, but I want to accelerate shuttle production now. Anyone who prepays for the larger shuttles now will get a rebate of $50 for each of the first ten shuttles that sell after that. That's $500 back. Once these shuttles become well known they will become very popular and the price will have to go up considerably. Now's the time to get the best price, and get the rebates. I can only do this with 5 people and I already have one. On the small shuttle anyone who pays now, and waits for the SRB tubes, will get a rebate of $25 for each of the next ten that sell, so that is $250 back. We are in the process of taking some photos and establishing a website. We will have video on the site also. If you have any questions on engines used, etc. please let us know. Thanks

I think "I am getting $135,000 from a lawsuit settlement, but it won't get to me for another 45 days"rings the bell

RE: Shuttle
 

Just think about it. I could get $500 back on each now if I order a dozen of them, I be getting $6000.00 back I would be cool to actually get one that flies as advertised. I would drop money for one that is actually proven, but not for one as advertised so far. He has one person, he needs four more to start. Notice he never mentions a price? just a rebate. I will email him in about two and a half weeks and see if he got the SRB tubes in

The reason that the last thread dissappeared is that first of all, it's not jet related. Secondly, threads about this guy end up with a whole lot of comments that don't have a lot to back them up with. The ad for the shuttles has been shut down and the seller suspended due to many people flagging the ad as fraud.
Since this thread is also not jet related but another thread that will likely turn into a slam fest or discussion about how crooked the guy is, I am closing it but will leave it up for a few days so that the reason can be seen as to why they keep dissappearing.
Thanks
