Yep, I'm the heel/holdup, here. I had not talked to the supplier since my last contact around the 5th, and had not thought much about it since then due to a full plate. Brandon brought this to my attention today, and sure enough, they were still waiting on me to do something I was supposed to do. So, my apologies for those who were waiting on us (me), and if anyone hasn't already got something by this coming week, we'll have some additional airframes in the shop.

Check out this interesting new manned electric VTOL aircraft that was designed by a guy at NASA Langley. You can read more about it here.

GREAT pictures Ken! You had that camera working buddy!
Ya know,,,,, I think thats the first time someone caught my Euro Sport on a landing. Nice to have documentation that even I can do a nose high 3 point landing sometime! LOL
Saturday was more like a sanctioned fly in. I think we kept 4 or 5 flight stations filled all day. At one point, I saw all 6 going.
Keep up the awesome camera work dude! And get that motor and radio ready to drop in that racer!

I ordered mine on Tuesday evening, and it showed up Wednesday afternoon!!!!
I plan to build it Sunday ( unless I go flying)

See all you folks on Saturday at the BARKS Swap Meet. Robert, Josh and myself are headed up there tonight to set up. Ya'll come by my table. I Make Good Deal For You Joe,,,Good Deal!!!
