RE: Charlie Kellogg's TBM Avenger Build

Larry, are there any updates on the Avenger flight program?

RE: Charlie Kellogg's TBM Avenger Build

Larry, The Avenger will fly great at 44 pounds. With all of that wing it won't even notice a few extra pounds. I guess you are looking at the 14th. so you can go to Warbirds over New Jersey on...

The S-2 Tracker is getting closer. I want to finish the L-19 rehab and the D-18 before I start the S-2. The S-2 will be a two year project that I hope to start this winter.

RE: Charlie Kellogg's TBM Avenger Build

Boyd,
Sorry to hear about losing your Corsair. When a older model goes in it is like losing an old friend. I lost my 16 year old Ziroli AT-6 to aileron hinges pulling out this spring and I lost my...
