Any news on GG?

[planecrazy2]

Anyone care to give some insight into Jimmy's shakeout progress on GG?

Are they working on her, or is she sleeping until early summer?

Seems to me that on an airframe with such complex systems they would have a flight test program for GG leading up to mid-September.

Anyone know?

She is still here, with her winter coat on..... At least that is what it looks like. I suppose as soon as we warm up and this snow melts she will be gracing our skies.......

Just got the new issure of World Airshow News magazine yesterday, great article with pictures by Scotty on the drama of getting the Ghost ready and how close they were to making Reno 09. Bottom line is the week after Reno they made 5 test flights with NO sqwuaks, the boil off system was perfect, shortest wingspan every for an F-51, airplane flies great, canopy even smaller than Dago/Strega/Voodoo but vis is OK, bottom line look for records to fall this year. Great pics including one of Jack Roush fabricating a coolant line! Surprised the article isn't on Scotty's site, at least not yet.
