A COMPILATION OF TWO FLIGHTS ON DIFFERENT DAYS OF THESE AWESOME GAS TURBINE MODELS !
DAVE SWARBRICK THE BUILDER / OWNER OF BOTH THESE MODELS SENT THIS INFO OVER ON THE PANTHERS –
Dave Swarbrick – Hi Dean,Video great here is some info on the Panthers. My panther no. 42 was built several years ago as one of a pair that Dave Johnson and myself flew at the shows for several years. Dave has not brought his out for a while as the room in his van is limited.I decided to build another Panther for Jason to fly and aquired one as a semi built project that several people had owned and never finished. So it was built and went through the over 20kg scheme. The first time we flew them as a duo was at cosford this year (2016) We had no time to practise as we only finished the flight tests two weeks before Cosford. My model is 116 ins wingspan and 116 ins long 26.5 KG. and has a Jet Central Mammoth turbine. It is all wood construction with pro skin on the wings and glass cloth on the fuselage. The other one (108) is slightly smaller at 102in wingspan and 102 ins long all the same construction methods. Jays engine is an ATJ 170. weighs 21.5 kg. They are built from the zirroli plan and cut out by Belair..
