Thanks for sharing. That was kinda impressive looking. I wonder if it has any aerobatic capabilities? I know it would add cost, complexity and probably weight, but it could sure use a set of retracts.

Pretty cool - and yes, retracts would be even better. Can we get the kit in the U.S.? I wonder what the cockpit panel looks like?

would be great to fly into Oshkosh and Sun N Fun and ask if you can park in the military display with this upon landing

Love the end, he has some serious Top Gun swagger when he exits the cockpit, and rightfully so.
