Anybody else out there seen this new plane? I was in the LHS last night and I saw an advertisement for it inside the back cover of the latest Fly R/C magazine. Looks like I may have to call AI and order a 3W70 CS twin for it. I just LOVE biplanes with round cowls.............:yesss:

I saw the ad and turned Dr Evil on to it. He pre-orders it from Tower Hobbies last week with a mid-January ship date. Yesterday he got an email the plane was no longer available, it has been removed from Tower's website, and it was never on Great Planes website that we saw...strange.

I couldn't find it at Tower either. Who's at the AMA expo? Maybe someone could ask why pre orders canceled.

That's the one. I don't know why they would advertise it and then say "it was no longer available". While I was at the LHS, I asked the owner to look it up for me and he didn't find anything on it either. Hopefully, they eventually will release it. If they don't, I just may have to buy the JTEC kit and build one like Wacobipe did. Though, I doubt I could match the awesome job he did on his.

I've been drooling over both the 26% and 41% JTEC/Bob Trueworthy kits since they were introduced and Wacobipe finished his.

I'm in the process of building a Trueworthy for a friend. Hoping it turns out spectacular.
