I haven't seen it yet, but talked to them this morning and it was out so have one coming. I don't even know the price (never asked), but would assume it will be similar to the Smoothie and Nobler.

I think this PLANE will be a good one. A member In our club had one with a McCoy 40 in it and it was a great flying plane! This will have to go on my wish list. NOW is this OT legal? or is it still Classic? I fly the RMS T-BIRD 2 for classic and it's a good one. ALSO has any one heard when the STREGA is comming out?

The next one due out is the Pathfinder--the full size one, not the 1/2 A version shown in the Brodak catalogue which still is not out. It may follow the large version, though.

Nope. First one was 1954 or 1955, after everyone's cutoff!

I always was enamored with the T-Bird's looks; never had one, so maybe I will now! (Although Eric has offered his for a couple of years already and I haven't gotten one of those yet .. )

My T-bird II is a nice flying machine. Fox, natch.

And it sure is pretty.
