Pics from Camarillo airshow

[Pdawg]

The airshow today was low key yet still awesome. All sorts of fantastic aircraft covering many decades were displayed and flown. My favorite though was Dan Wright's Nemesis NXT. I must have stared at it in awe for 30 minutes. Its simply bitchin. Hopefully I can get to Reno this year for the first time and see Dan bank and yank around the pylons.

Nice shots!
Any details on the really sharp P-51D replica.
Sure is swinging a BIG prop for a 75 % scale? replica.
Kit? FEW? Stewart? Plans Built?
Looks like a FEW to me.

Peashooter,
Glad you like the Avatar. The Micro Stinger is a design I've been working on for more than a year now. Its powered by a littlescreamer outrunner and uses 2 or 3s lipos for power. This 24" wingspan racer has been clocked at over 150mph using a 3s pack . I've never been to Parker but I live very close to Pt. Fermin. Right now I'm making a sloper version of this design for giggles...well see what happens? the wing on this version was shaped from solid Basswood. (see pic)

Sierra,
Unfortunately I didn't get many good shots of Man O War. During the warbird flight it was by far the fastest fighter in the air and my attempts are too pathetic to post.

Mustang,
here are the rest of the 3/4 scale P-51. I did not get any info on it but it was pretty fast in the air also. It flew during the homebuilt timeslot

What type of plane is N724DC? I do not believe I have ever seen one of those before. It is the all yellow one with a turbine. It sure looks cool. Any ideas?

Re: Pics from Camarillo airshow

That would be a Legend (turbo-prop of coarse), there is a choice.
Not as fast as they look, but OK.

Deepsky.......I don't know what it is.......but I know Cessna years ago had an airplane that looked alot like that. They were playing around with the idea as a trainer to either replace or go along with the Cessna 150/152.

The canopy on the 3/4 Mustang makes it look like a G/J-model Mustang. My friend and kit builder Jim Ryan has a small hotliner like that and the Lipo batteries keep it zooming around for more that 30 minutes. It is frickin' amazing.

I've seen DS videos from Pt. Fermin -- looks like it rocks!

BTW, if there's West wind, I'll be sloping at Red Rock Saturday evening after the Gold Race at the VOS.

Re: Pics from Camarillo airshow

I think Jay is close. Looks like a Anderson-Greenwood (and Slaughter) AG-14.

Here's a couple of links:

Careful Peas. You're treading into geek territory with statements like that!
