          I thought I heard him even earlier, about 7 and wondered if it was flying yet. Maybe not him, but SOMETHING was up!
          Love the sound of the thunder mustangs.

            What I heard (and saw) WAS Blue II. He flew right over my house!

                    I'm not sure if everyone knows how HUGE this is. In two years, they have gone from a burning pile of what use to be Blue Thunder, to, what we should call the Pheonix, BLUE THUNDER II!!!. We have had the privelage of watching the birth of this plane through updates from John and the Blue Crew. John, Great Job!!!!. While I have never met you or any one from the crew, I am so proud of you you and what you have been able to accomplish! Freakin Awesome Man!!!!!

                        Being a resident here I've been able to keep a closer eye on this project. And it is truely amazing how this has come together. They've really done an outstanding job, and Mike has always taken a short moment to 'show and tell' as it were whenever I've stopped by.

                          Wow, awesome job fellas. I was just out there the other day and decided not to bother anyone there, knowing what kind of challenge you guys had in front you. Really wanted to but, in reading this thread, I'm glad I left you guys alone. Atta Fricken Boy!
                          You'll get your chance, smart guy!

                            From crate to GREAT and from buyin' to FLYIN' in less than 21 months is wonderful news to all of us Thunder Mustang fans!

                            Thanks VERY MUCH for the super monthly updates and details. I'm sure fans wish all crews building and race-preparing would do such things.


                            Come to think of it...Weren't we suppose to get regular updates on the Furias project from Matt Jackson or the crew after the sale?

                              Such a great story to come out of such a horrible turn of events. I was happy to put money in their jar and am very glad it went to use. I think in the long run this will turn out to be a blessing in disguise. So many opportunitie arrise when you HAVE to do it all over again.


                              GO GET DARYL !!!!!!
