When will the Panther fly again?

July 14, 2013Rachel,,,,

The Panther reassembly is coming along, but visually not as appealing as we hope it will be in a day or so. The whole fuse is covered in tarp to keep us from scratching it – and getting over spray from the panel getting re-dusted after the expanded hole for the GRT unit. We do…

Update on the Panther – Paint Job and Chance to See it Fly

July 10, 2013Rachel,,,,,,,

The wings are back from the paint shop and they look amazing! The colors turned out exactly as we hoped. The cowling, canopy skirt and the tail fairings are being worked over by their awesome body guy. Sunday consisted of getting the fuselage prepped for paint. Sanding down proud rivet heads, scuffing and scotch brite…

Fuel Tanks, Firewall, Cowling and Canopy Skirt

February 24, 2013Rachel,,,,

I started assembling the left fuel tank today with the Flamemaster and things went very well. All of the end or butt ribs had been sealed except for one right one, so I started with that. This way it would have time to cure before I got around to it. I have been mixing in…

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!!
