Could it be?? You'd think he'd at least fly it once. Or watch it fly. What's the story here Juan? |

"Liability Release signed by purchaser AND spouse is mandatory, no sign,
no sale." That still won't keep you out of court. Deaf2u wrote: http://www.global-air.com/global/g05229.htm Could it be?? You'd think he'd at least fly it once. Or watch it fly. What's the story here Juan? |

Is that "ready to fly"? I.E. a Basic Operating Weight? Can anybody compete for a Guiness World Record "Lightest Jet"? What are the rules? Obviously it need not be an actual flying airplane... Al G |

The ONLY way he will ever sell it is IF he can find a bigger fool than
himself to buy it. I am not sure that would be possible but in a world full of fools...who knows? $120,000 for that death trap...wow! I might see a $120 to use it as a sign for a local hamburger joint called AIRWAYS. Deaf2u wrote: http://www.global-air.com/global/g05229.htm Could it be?? You'd think he'd at least fly it once.

He bought it 90% completed if memory serves. His excuse then for trying to sell it was he was moving to Puerto Rico and needed the money. What his excuse is now is anyone's guess. Personally I wouldn't try to fly it either after he worked on it. Maybe he should convert it to radio control and rent it to the military as a target. Dan, U.S. Air Force, retired |

An old (and a fair bit bold) VERY experienced pilot once told me...
To live a long life... Try to avoid the A model of anything, and never fly anything that doesn't have the paint worn off the rudder pedals. Deaf2u wrote: http://www.global-air.com/global/g05229.htm Could it be?? You'd think he'd at least fly it once. Or watch it fly. What's the story here Juan? |

Yes, that's what I understand. I believe it was concluded that you
can't sign away the rights of others, so parents, siblings, maybe the boss at work, etc. could file suit. There's probably always someone who could...and a lawyer who would Scott john smith wrote: "Liability Release signed by purchaser AND spouse is mandatory, no sign, no sale."
