Default 84.5 inch GP Reactor

Anybody has seen this plane in action? http://www.greatplanes.com/performan.../gpma1420.html. I was looking for a video but could not find one at the GP site.

Anyways, the videos of their planes you see at their website are not very good since they are flown by mediocre pilots.

Great Planes, why don't you hire a good pilot to demo your planes? I bet you can get more sales.

Totally agree, with the OS 160, it would be super underpowered. I would put a Dl 50 under the hood.

But before committing to buying this bird, I would like to see a video where a world class pilot flies this plane to its full potential. Then, I'll see what the limits are.

I was on the verge of building one, but my plans fell through.

I'd LOVE to see one, though.

Okay, you talked me into it. I'll fly one.
