Talbs is ensuring he keeps the second hand aircraft market volatile.

It also gives us the chance to pick up a good 40% at a reduced cost.

Maybe he is getting kickbacks from the model industry, sell a plane with no gear, hobby shop sales go up, build another etc etc.

I also get to fly heeeeeeeeps of different planes that he tests, oh yeh, all is good.

I think he should try a 70%er

Keep it up bro....LOL

Cant keep the turn over up as it cost way to much each time
