Just checked the WIX board, there are some pics posted there of the Oscar’s first flight!! All seemed to go well, not great pics but certainly viewable…..great news!

Yeah, I believe it’s the same one….I seem to recall that the damage from the undercarriage collapse was’nt as bad as they thought it was initially…

Thanks John. I did read the Wix thread but must’ve missed that fact. Wow, impressive repair work. Anyone have any idea when the next one/s will be flying. Won’t it be great to see a bunch of Oscars together?
Same goes for the Me262’s and Fw190’s, when will the next ones of them be getting aloft?

Hi Dave – they say on the posts that it is the same one that was repaired – A great effort in a short time – looks fantastic.

Is that the same Oscar that had the taxi accident? Or is it another off the production line? Great to hear one is finally back in the air.
