FAQ Page and Update

We have added a Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) page to the website.  Here we attempt to answer some of the common questions regarding the Panther, quickly and efficiently.  Please feel free to make comments here for anything you think is missing.

The Panther flight testing will continue this week.  Dan performed a thorough engine inspection after 10 flight hours and a total of 15 run hours, and the engine passed with flying colors.

Corvair Cam Gear – Dan and William Wynne designed this easily removable cover to view the cam gear.

Here is a sneak peek at the paint colors for the Panther.

Here are paint sample chips for the Panther paint.

And below a visit from a fellow builder – Fred Schutt.

Fred Schutt came by to say hello and see the Panther. Fred has a Corvair 2850 with one of our new billet crankshafts installed. He is building a Zenith 601 XL.

This week flight testing will continue. After some great suggestions from other builders we have mounted the GoPro on the roll bar and are setup to record in flight audio so we can get a blow-by-blow from the pilots. Stay tuned for videos soon!

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!!
