Default Re: SkyShark Christen Eagle
Christen Eagle's have always been my favorite airplane. I've owned several kinds starting with the Bryon and the most recent being the GP. The Great Planes version was an excellent flying airplane and I actually miss it quite a bit. I had an FPE 3.2 in mine and it would hover/TR quite well. No bad tendency's. The Bryone was another story. I've done alot of reading on the Skyshark and that one too seems to be a very good flying airplane.

If I remember the Skyshark is just a tad smaller then the GP so I would probably say the Saito 1.80 is gonna be a better choice then a gasser.

Dug up a couple of pics of my Bryon from about 15 years ago.
