Sun ‘N Fun 2014 Rocked for SPA!

We had a great time at SNF this year. The traffic was good through the booth all week. We had many familiar faces, and got to meet people we hadn’t yet put a face with their name from online chatting, emails and phone calls. Sun ‘N Fun is a great place to hang out with […

Sebring 2014 Was Awesome! See Photos..

This was the first year we attended the Sebring Sport Expo in Sebring FL. What a great show! The vendor support, show layout and attendance was excellent, and this will certainly be a show we put on the “must attend list” from now on.

Flight Testing Continues – Review and Video from Bob Woolley

Flight testing continues on the Panther with over 27 hours of flight time showing on the hobbs. To date, the Panther has shown no bad habits or traits.

Panther First Flight Test – Success!!

We took the Panther back down to our local public airport this morning for the first test flight – and it was amazing!

Panther Second Taxi – with Lift

Today Team Panther trailer-ed Panther N515XP down for what hoped would be the first flight. We knew the morning would be good weather, but that a system was going to roll in by the afternoon.
