Don't worry about me too much though, I'm being reactivated on Tuesday. I got a really good deal, I actually can't believe it to be honest. But a very, very high ranking guy really wanted me back. I'm a little nervous to be honest. But at least for the time I might have the spare cash to invest in a few more planes.
Just wanted to tell ya, real pretty plane.
Best Regards
Woody

I saw Chris Wolf's A7 at the AMA show, in Pomona CA. Amazing looking jet, and a very nice person as well. His after burners are very impressive as well. I should know, I have 9 of them.
I am a jet hoarder and can't wait for MRC or Freewing to come up with a 90mm version. I think its one of the coolest looking jets ever made. Coincidentally, someone brought the small 64mm F8 Crusader to the Apollo XI field last Saturday, and it sparked a conversation between two guys, which grew to a heated discussion between 10 to 12 people. I guess there is more interest in a bigger version of this jet than MRC or Freewing is aware of. I for one know dozens of people at my field that have expressed interest in this jet, one time or another. I think it is just a matter of time before some of the leading RC manufacturers will pick up the task of making one, and other copy cats will follow suit when they see the sales potential. I am sure most of us in the hobby are tired of seeing another F16 or F18 debut at some RC event. Please! be original and come up with something original. I agree with Alpha's explanation of the business model of the RC world and proper research is key to deciding what jet to build. To this day I have yet to see that take place. Forums should also post manufacturer's intentions of building a certain model and analyze the response from their customers. In reality, we see the complete opposite. I guess they are afraid of other RC manufacturers of beating them to the punch and coming up with a comparable model. Most quality RC manufacturers have a loyal customer base , ie. Freewing, and if another manufacturer , ie Dynam, came up with a similar product, then I am sure Freewing would come out on top. In my opinion the secrecy is not justified. Just ask us in these forums and we will tell you ahead of time, if we will buy your product or not. Simple!

There are some good stories about the A7 I only see wolfs A7 on YouTube that brought back memories. When I was young my father took me to an air show at Andrews Air Force bade in Maryland and seen the A7 up close and loved that plane every scene. That Is a nice plane and George you a good job. I know to get one know I’ll have to work a lot of overtime

Always been found of the A-7. Remember having built a model of it when I was younger and using it as my toy airplane. Then seeing it up close and in person while spending my summers, at the time Rickenbacker, in Ohio with my brother. Would like a 1/8 scale epo version to try to convert to a K version.
