Great looking T-28 and looks like it fly's good too!

Gorgeous Aircraft. Thanks for sharing this. Puts me in mind of all the years of listening to aircraft warming up and run training flights at various Naval Air Stations.

What a Masterpiece, "Micheal Angelo" Would Be Envious,

[@JDDupuy]

Wow what a nice flying site. Good crowd of members too flying! T-28 nice as all getout!

[@Steve-Cross]

Definitely needs a radial motor. It doesn’t sound right with the weeded whacker motor. A beautiful aircraft nonetheless. 👍

Still putting mine together. Be interested in AUW, what throws, CG you used and thoughts on general flight characteristics. Sank pretty quick with flaps on final, bit slow perhaps? Great job mate.

Love that field. Great place and great guys flying out there.

[@JohnVHRC]

Really cool airplane, needs a radial

Awesome Jason, Great video

[@tennriverluver3534]

Very nice. Gorgeous airplane!

[@scotabot7826]

Just like a big trainer. Need to get rid of that gas 2-stroke chainsaw engine, and put a radial in it!!

Beautiful scheme. Take the struts apart, replace the 80# springs with something with about 1/3 as stiff and clean out the glue they call grease and use some quality lithium grease. Then your oleos will actually function.

Motor and Prop setup?

[@martinbisley]

Nice model. Picking mine up tomorrow. What engine you running?

[@capnhardway]

Beautiful! Looks like you could crawl inside it's so big !😂

[@Ride-Fly]

Is this in Australia?

[@billyhollis5738]

RC car guy.. looking to buy my 1st trainer for my 48th birthday.. any suggestion.. looking at a pusher prop.

[@LeonardoCostaUSA]

That was a good attempt. Zero focus video and landing out of the run way .. Other than that the airplane is beautiful !!

[@Mikeylikesit1968]

Nice plane but when sitting on the ground the struts are too long.

[@mpojr]
