Titan info

[Lance Van Nostrand]

Well...there are a few US based companies that design and build their kits here (AeroSlave, Dick Hansen, Bob Hunt and others).  I know I listen carefully to feedback on our planes and will experiment with the most promising change ideas.  France is not a cheap labor market, as anyone buying a kit from there can attest, so what drives the top fliers to the planes they choose?

   I agree Xavier, but for the most part the planes from overseas dominate the landscape. Even Chip has his planes produced in Europe. I think it's tough to be the  worldleader in F3A as a country yet we produce so little of the plane. That would include the engines and the radios. I guess it's just a sad reflection of where our nation as a whole has gone. Mike

    If I am not mistaking, Sean was flying an American build and design airplane and Chip was flying an American design at the World. At the Nats and team trials, there were some EMC2, Focus etc flown by the top guys, including the winner in FAI.

      Hey Scott thanks for producing American airplanes at a price that we can afford. I have found that there are many alternatives to the ZNLine and PLProd offerings that work well. Companys like yours and Piedmont should be supported more by our flyers. When was the last time you saw any of the top flyers at the worlds fly an American built and designed plane? Thanks again, Mike

        Mike , 

        You would have to contact Maureen at P.A.C. , I don't know what the price will be right now , but I know that the goal is to get a quality airplane out at a price that you don't have to take out a second mortgage just to get it to your front door .

          Thanks Scott, any idea of what the pricing will be on this kit? Mike

            To all interested I am working on the plug right now and the plane is scheduled to be released in late October as a glass and foam kit through Precision Aero Composites . I will send a picture of the new Titan which has been made to look a little sleeker to Gerald Williams at gwair.com  if anyone wants to see it . Thanks  for the kind words Steve Maxwell .

              Scott Dunphy designed it, think they are in the last stages of doing a mold, I did see it fly at Nashville and was impressed with it, Scott's e-mail and phone # are on http://www.precisionaerocomposite.com/   website under construction.
