Aerotech just needs a stand up guy and I think you would be it!!

You may want to include a Dalton and Godfrey in your list of copy cat pictures Chris. I think maybe the Godfrey designs were out before any of these!!! By the way I have a Carden 300 and Aerotech 300 different planes in shapes and sizes.

What do you mean by this? Both of these are totally different construction.

Leave the sarcasm out of your answer. Please give me a straight answer. Rob

A BIG yes!

Rob,

Get John out of the equation and I can honestly say, YES, I would try another Aerotech kit.

I built one...and only one.....Aerotech. The build went well, the design seemed solid, the plane flew fantastic. It was a bit on the heavy side...but as others have said, (and you know by experience) they can be made lighter.

Get John 100%, totally, forever out of the picture....and improve the quality of the 'glass.....and I would be very interested in trying another.

The Aerotech is on the right(yellow plane)carden on the left. They also look like Edges. Am I right?Rob

[sukhoi26]

I have alot of work to due on this subject. But yes Competition Airframes is considering buying Aerotech. This is the support i was looking for. I'll keep you all up dated on how things are working out. Keep the input coming. Rob

I think "Sleepy's Custom Super Bad Ass Aero-speedwagon TOC TAS Planes" sounds better.
Call me, we can talk, I'm open for options.

rob just be sure and try to keep the prices in the general area.dalton and carden are on the top end of the price scale but are fine aircraft,aeroworks is in about the low high end so it is a little better for the working man,you know what i mean so just try to not make all your money back all at once.good luck and i for one will support you

[aviti]

It's always good to have more kit options as long as you can count on the integrity of the ownership. I hope Aerotech gets bought by someone we can trust. More options are good for us.

I totally agree with you on the pricing. The price will go up but, all kits will include carbon wing tube and stab tube and the necessary hardware to complete the build. They will be priced to sell.
There's still work to be done. I've called a guy that does fiberglass and I'm talking to a guy about canopy's. I also have the plans for a very large vacuum former to make canopy's so I'm looking at building one of those. This may take awhile so please bare with me.
Please let me make this very clear, in no way am I trying to compete with Tony Russo. He is a very close friend of mine and in no way will i jeopardise my friendship with him. This is not a get rich business and that's not what I'm trying to do. there is a big gap in the airplane kit business and John has some nice planes that i think will sell very well and from the response from you guys so far it looks like this is a direction i might go in. Rob

[VooDoo Child]

I started reading about a guy who wanted a 35% Aerotech Edge and a couple pages later it has turned into a test poll for Rob buying a fixer upper buisness...Man what happend to this world,another 20min out of my life i will never get back Oh ya Rob,just so you know i could take 20000 Good Humor popsickle stix and build a better flying plane then you.Oh i went there

Is that supposed to be a joke? Any fool that's ever seen one of the two could tell that the one on the right is the Aerotech. Or was it the one on the left???
