I heard it crashed, Not sure if it's true as the info wasn't from the horsess mouth.

Greetings Folks,
As the owner of the Turbine Toucan I can assure you it has NOT crashed. As a matter of fact, it has been performing flawlessly at an undisclosed location. We've been keeping a VERY low profile with the plane while waiting out this really bad economy. Not a great deal of sponsorships going on at the moment.

We are first and foremost a marketing company, so as much as we'd like to campaign the aircraft and show it off to the world, it wouldn't be in our title sponsors best interest. When we do start campaigning, it will still be a fresh experience to most. Extremely frustrating to be waiting it out on the sidelines but it is what we have to do. Infinity Entertainment has been extremely busy with its brand business, so we can manage to fund the sideline. Hope that helps
