Get a Taste of What a Corvair College is Like

November 20, 2015Rachel,,,

Most people think of an engine build school as a classroom setting, with manuals, name tags, a projector and death by power-point presentations. Take a look at this short video I put together about what a Corvair College is like. Hopefully you will see what the fuss is all about, why people sign up…

My Panther build was really a lot of fun. I completed the entire project in my two car garage then moved it to the airport for the first flight. I always get comments over the radio about what a great looking plane it is. It's a real blast to fly.

I was able to build my Panther in my basement and carried the finished pieces up one at a time through my living room and kitchen into a tiny 1 car garage where it now sits with its wings folded. The folding wings will allow me to share a hangar and transport it to any field for flight testing. I can't imagine building anything else in my limited space.

Paul spent a lot of time with my friend and I on the Panther. Looks to be a great new product and I came away feeling confident they are building and supporting a very strong, safe, and well built plane.

After working with Rachael and Dan on getting my Corvair engine going for my Sonex, I have decided to build a Panther. Here's why: the support is outstanding! Phone calls are answered and texts are responded to almost immediately! After experiencing building three different aircraft from three different companies and presently converting the Sonex, I can say this from experience....these guys are first class!!
