TEST FLIGHTS COMPLETED We've been quietly flying the test program hours off of the Tango-Tango airplane, and are pleased to report that as of today, the last hour of FAA required flight test time was logged, paving the way for Tango-Tango for move ahead to the delivery phase. We are declaring our flight tests complete!

The airplane will now be disassembled and prepared for shipment on the Delivery Flight of a Cargolux 747 in October 2005.

The next flight of Tango-Tango will be in Munich, Germany piloted by Horst Philippe of the Messerschmitt Foundation flying team. More news to follow as these events unfold http://www.stormbirds.com/project/images/TT-Gear-Up.jpg
