! The Gremlin is a great example- those planes were a lot of fun to fly and did things I thought not possible for them to do.

That was my immediate thought! Just find a way to jam a turbine into a Gremlin! Been bummed that @thenated0g got the last gremlin for sale apparently anywhere. I wish I would have jumped on the chance to buy it before he did lol.
I’ve been watching this guy named Martin Pickering for a while on YouTube. He flies turbines. Pretty amazing skills
Check this video from about 3:00 minutes in. Crazy hovering maneuver (not Pickering) isn’t this considered a delta?

Impressive, Kelly.
But I think its a different fish from were we want to go.
Fine piloting though.

That is the style video I was trying to find earlier.

I think one of the things that held the Gremlin back was the looks. hint hint..

Definitely different. I just wanted to show a turbine that was hovering since Wayne mentioned it in his post.! The skill is impressive.
This will be a very interesting project. Looking forward to seeing how it goes.

I totally agree - but thats oh so easy in hindsight...woulda...coulda...shoulda...

Biggest problem is that as a designer you have to make the decision and push the go button. Its only a lot later and a lot of $$$ used that you find you have made a mistake.

But anyway, the Gremlin profile is a direction I wont be going down in the future. I hope I have a better idea of what people want.

Thanks for the hints, Wayne - esecially as you are right.
