F16's are cool!
Or buy another one, some Ray Bans and build an F14

Or a Do-335!! :twisted:

649 kW (870 shp) derated to 425 kW (570 hp) is what the spec sheet says, after 1.5hrs its still very fresh..

I have built half the current airframe so no big loss to scrap and start again. It was built using 4agze sizing

Its a jet engine hooked up to a turbo-prop gearbox...

Funny what you can buy nowdays...

stuff the planes, stick the motor into an 86 corolla or something equally as cool

do you like movies about gladiators??

have you ever been in a... in a Turkish prison??

You ever…seen a grown man naked?

F-14 are cool if your tom cruise...

Not going to build a replica jet as fly by wire is Fing expensive and would prefer something pre-1950

Thats alot of power! the old mans nanchang only has around 280hp and probably weighs twice as much as what your building!

What engine is he using? a Rotex or lycomming is common..

It is a turboprop so it should make decent power considering the excessive fuel use...

by **duddley** » Wed Oct 05, 2011 6:10 pm

Im not sure what the engines called but its a great big 9 cylinder radial

by **kiwi4agze** » Wed Oct 05, 2011 6:20 pm

A radial only making 280hp? Are you able to ask which one?

Tell him a Double wasp Jnr makes 1300HP and you can buy one for $5000+gst or a Double Wasp 2100hp for around 15,000+gst

by **duddley** » Wed Oct 05, 2011 7:20 pm

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanchang_CJ-6 its one of these. those engines you listed are alot cheaper then what they paid for a new engine a few years ago

by **kiwi4agze** » Wed Oct 05, 2011 7:25 pm

Yeah cause they are 40+ years old......

I might have seen your dad flying.... does he fly from whanaupai?

The CJ-6 is a great first aircraft.. how many hours you done in it?

by **duddley** » Wed Oct 05, 2011 7:28 pm

I haven't been flying in ages myself, its the green nanchang that lives up at dairy flat and i don't think its been into Whenuapai

I've been up in that - it's AWESOME!!!!

So how long do you expect it to take to build the plane and get it flying? I imagine it being something that could take years.

And how the hell did you convince your wife to let you build & fly your own plane? My GF of 7 years won't even let me sit on a motorcycle.
