Hey, its always worth a try.

I know things will change but when you buy a company you buy its reputation also.

Good luck to you guys and I wish you the best.

We at The New Aerotech are ready and willing to accept full responsibility for any Aerotech related issues dating from April 29th, 2009 on. That is when we purchased the assets of this company. We are fully aware that some folks will have some assistance questions regarding previous dealings and we are certainly willing to listen and get you to the people that are responsible for all Aerotech dealings prior to our acquisition of the assets. I am quite certain that everyone that deals with The New Aerotech will quickly see that we are 100% customer service driven. We can only strive to impress on a going-forward basis and hope to be given the benefit of a clean slate.

Thank you and again, we look forward to meeting as many of you as possible!

Keep Flyin'!

Matt Mikesh

I just got off the phone and will second his comments from above. I wish this transaction would have taken place long ago. This model line is one of the best and I expect a full recovery!!

Matt, thanks for all that you do.

This sounds awesome! so I have to put in my request. I will start with the why, I am building from plans the 35% Wendell Hostetler Pitts s1-11b. The plans are very old school hand drawn nothing is going easy AT ALL! So I would like to see a nice cad drawn laser cut Pitts Challenger, not the m-12 or an Ultimate but a well designed Challenger. This fine plane has gone the way of the dinosaur. It needs to be brought back to the main stream and I feel you guys are the ones to do it.

Hey Matt,

I have an older Aerotech edge and the instruction manual is non-exstinant and basically I have screwed everything up in the process (trial and error new builder). Could I buy you and Rob a few cases of your beverage of choice at the St. Louis Huckfest in exchange for building tips? Also I was looking on the website and the old owner stated that the Yak 55 will be available in June. Is that still true? One final question will you have any parts available for the edges b/c I am pretty sure that I will either be needing some or possibly a whole new wing kit? Thanks again for taking this on and I know it will be a success.
