Default Whats your favorite Insane foamie plane?

As you all know, www.insanefoamies.com has (in my oppinion) some of the best foam airplanes ever made. I personally have had the profile yak and the extra, and loved both. great planes, people, and service. So, i was wondering how many of you have had one or more of their planes, and which ones you liked best? I think i liked my yak best over the extra, it was a little more precise.

So lets hear what you've had and post some pics if you have any..

Default Re: Whats your favorite Insane foamie plane?

Yeah i would have to agree with Cajun. The yak does rock. So does the Katana. I am building my second extra 300 now, the first one i ever bought was the extra not really knowing how to set up foamies then i got the hang of building them and purchased the katana, I thought the katana was better. Then i flew the yak. hands down Yak all the way.
