      I think the home run has already been hit in the Phantom ... in fact, the crowds have still not stopped cheering for that one and the batter is still making his way around the bases! :Cool:

        Well, as cool as it was, or is, I'm already bored with it. On to the next.

          Now that the tariff is active, it makes me wonder if this next plane will be out of my reach anyhow, as I think I heard electronics are part of it, however the news I heard it on didnt elaborate on this.

            Or they are waiting for them to arrive so when it’s announced they can ship immediately. That’s where my money is.

              Think there was an MRC statement way back of " pre order available when on the water" but all we can do is speculate, guess and dream of planes to come.....:Sleeping: :f18

                Right and I suspect that was going to coincide with Joe Nall which got cancelled. If they made an announcement last month after they were on the water then they should be here this month.

                      They mentioned somewhere that the announcement was going to happen at Nall but they were making an exception doing that since they normally wait till they are on the water and they would not have been by Nall but didn't want to pass up the opportunity to announce at a big event like that. Since Nall was cancelled, the announcement went back to normal timing from them...FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND AT LEAST!

                                A big Gee Bee would be interesting, but only half as interesting as a big Do-335. :)

                                  WOW, 5 cylinder, 4 cycle radial. sounds as good as it performs.I only fly electric, but that motor should be required equipment for that plane.

                                      Yes this has been tough. Tougher knowing it's [potentially] a July release. I'm starting to consider the possibility of a B1 or B2 release as I've heard they will be retiring them early. Possibly a tribute release?

                                      Anyone know much about these bombers as they relate to the summation of clues given recently?

                                        Must be great to have a product that so many buyers are patiently waiting for....if they had a brick and mortar store, I wonder if they would have a line similar to when Apple releases a new phone..?
