otis252 Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 I'd love to have a 'Cat, but that lack of brass gear really scares me. Chuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scvrobeson Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 The wire through the landing gear dates all the way back to the L-29. It's pretty much standard with HpH at this point Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
otis252 Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 I don't understand how on a high end kit like this, that is so nice in every other way, they can't find somebody to make some strong metal gear. I don't get it. Chuck David66 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reuben L. Hernandez Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 Very nice and I would like to have one but WAAAAYYYYYYY out of my budget for one kit! David66 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karimb Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 (edited) Also saw it and inspected it at the EDay 2017 show and managed to talk to the gentlemen running the HPH stall. It was going for 280€ retail show price. Tempted, but ended up not buying it as I really don't think I'd have enough stamina to finish it. It's a super lovely looking airplane. Super sexy and sleek but at the end of the day doesn't really float my boat. What i can tell you though is the kit is HEAVY. Brian the guys knows you i told him we were friends. He says hi by the way lol ;-) Karim Ps edit: i asked, it is priced at 320€ retail if not bought at the show Edited September 24, 2017 by karimb MikeMaben, scvrobeson, David66 and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasta 14 addict Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 312€ to be exactly, according to their site, i don't know if this will be the final price tag. At the moment i got my thought's on something else to spend my money. Greetz Danny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spent a fortune on other things so I thought buying the sg38 glider from them would make me "tick the box" in my shopping list Karim LSP_Kevin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Vulcan32 Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Tigercat is a great kit, what I like is, that they went back to instructions in booklet form. The retail price is €315,- The kit is heavy because of the biggest piece of nose weight that I´ve ever seen. It fills the nose back to the cockpit. @ Karim: I think I stood next to you while you were talking to Mirek about their Trainer aircraft.

If we talked about the trainer looking like a tucano, and the guy who was talking about this with Mirek was bald, and had a black backpack with a loviz lebanese patch and a ton of bags. Yup that was me! Why didn't you introduce yourself!!!! I also was with Jaroslav my very good friend who had the idea of me competing and spending a week here with him and his family, also met Miloslav. Did you compete?? I'm going to write a show report once i get back to doha too so many photos. How did you like the show? Karim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvilCarrot Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Is the high asking price because it's a better quality kit than their previous twins or is it a case of "because we can"? David66 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karimb Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Is the high asking price because it's a better quality kit than their previous twins or is it a case of "because we can"? Qualitywise the thing looks to be really topnotch. Buildability report would be Brian's input. Brian what do you think? Jack and David66 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian is THE expert on this for sure, but i'm certain it will be easier to build than the vacform version i did, and ofcourse i'll try to get my own hands on this gem, just to have it parked next to "462" !!
