RE: What do you think about JETLEGEND L39?

Jeff,

Yang himself has admitted to two already, broken carbon tube incidences. Is this something to be taken lightly??? Not many of the 110 L39's he produced are flying yet, so, how many more...

RE: What do you think about JETLEGEND L39?

So where's the confusion. Sandor is right, there are only about eight flights in there, including mine. My only landing was a greaser and Denny "Aerialcameraman" was there to witness it.

If you...

RE: What do you think about JETLEGEND L39?

RE: What do you think about JETLEGEND L39?

As I said earlier, I only had a couple of flights in this bird. How can it be anything else, other than manufacturing defect? What would someone do to the main carbon wing tube to make it chop off...

RE: What do you think about JETLEGEND L39?

Guys,

Nick has just arrived. I met him and picked up the JL CT114 from him. Upon opening the box, again these two carbon rods for spars. Closer inspection reveals that instead of a solid...

RE: What do you think about JETLEGEND L39?

Hi Jon,

I don't know what more you can do, other than what you are already doing, but I know that both, Skymasterjet and Airworld are using thick tubing ( I know it's aluminum in the 1/5 AW...

RE: What do you think about JETLEGEND L39?

As promised.

There are about six inches of 1/2" dia. thin walled carbon tubing holding the whole 34Lb airframe. Not only that, this thin tube also carries the stresses of the over-weight landing...

RE: What do you think about JETLEGEND L39?

Mike,

I was the one "lucky enough" to find out the very expensive way!!!. I still have that wing that separated from the rest of the airframe and the evidence is beyond any doubt incriminating...

RE: What do you think about JETLEGEND L39?

Your building skills and workmanship is unsurpassed by anyone's I know!!!
