The Aeroworks Ultimate is still in the R&D stages. Jason Noll has been flying the first prototype since the Shootout last year. We will have the second sample in our shop soon for final testing. We will have the Ultimate on display at Toledo this year.

Expected delivery is late summer 2008.

Thanks
Rocco /Aeroworks

Is it too early to start clearing space on the building table?

WOW......sounds like a biggun'! Yeah post some pics please. I'm also into bipes as well ( actually i'll fly anything with wings if i can get my hands on it ).

I picked up a few months ago a C.A. 34% Composite Pitts Stinker , with all the airbrushing done on it. I decided to hold of on that build until next winter and fly it next summer instead. Damn thing cost to much to be making any mistakes on it during the build or my setup.
