Back in April made my way up to the Home of Jet,s in NZ TOKOROA. It was a Hoot great place Great People and lots of Jets. Pete Browns very nice looking F5. Caught up with Colin hadn,t seen him in person since Hibiscus Club days. Anyhoo here he is preparing the Landing Gear in between flight of his new 1/4 scale L39 currently near completion. I mean look at the size of it. Colins awesome Grumman Panther chilling in between flights. Apparently this was gonna be 1/4 scale as well but his trailer wasn,t big enough so about 6 inches short. He has a bigger Trailer now. The internals and all Balsa and ply old school. Top hatch great place to hide the air cylinders plenty of space. Just a dam fine Flying Machine. EuroFighter hanging about in back of Hangar it did come out to play flew great. Can,t remember if that,s a Spark or Lighting. Very nice Goshawk sitting about minding it,s own business. Yes it,s got a prop but it,s a Turbine powered T-28. F5 with the Rebel and Turbinator at the front. ...
