        The kit was listed for $155K. The engine, if I remember correctly, was $85k. This would be the Continental TSIO-550 with 'all' the mods that you find in most of the Super Legacy's. The only Continental powered NXT that I know of, if you were to finish it that way. I know the race prop has been sold, as have some of the avionics. Another point is the tail is obviously modified. I think it is a Legacy horizontal stab and a custom vertical/rudder. That part of the build is what would concern me the most. Incidence angle, strength of the empennage, etc etc.. all pretty much guesses. Great if you guessed correctly, would suck if you have to change something. Either way, NXT's shouldn't be sitting around in shops, they should be flying. I hope someone finishes it, and the other kits still out there. ~Tom
