Ki-100 expected end of 2025 or early 2026

 

 

P-51B/C expected in 2026

Not that I will purchase a 229 B, but I hope they don't use the clear plastic on it.  What a mess to work with. 

 

Ki-100 looks great 

 

Will hope the Eduard P51 B comes out sooner, as the ZM Mustang, is a very complicated build (at least for me) with all the separate side panels and plumbing.

Surprised no one has commented on the heath issues that "The Old Man" outlined in his blog that he has been enduring this past year.  I hope and pray for good health to him.

I think in fairness, most folk hadn't got round to it, sounds like he had a real rough time, wishing him the very best of health.

I missed the fact that the "old man" was having problems ,hope everything is working out for him. Hopefully they'll correct the problems with the 229B. If it comes down to Z-M or Eduard  for the 51B/C, will most probably go with the Eddy[ and I like Z-M]. The Ki-100, I'll wait for the Ki-100-1-Otsu version.

Google Translate absolutely massacred that into English, but I managed to pick up the gist. The main words that stuck out regarding the old man's health were "kidney cancer"; most of the rest was a miserable, horribly-translated word salad (and some collections of letters that weren't even words). If anyone can read the original Japanese, can they confirm that the old man is actually on the mend now?

 

Good news about the Ki-100 and P-51B though. No interest in the Ho 229B.

My youngest daughter is flying here tomorrow. I'll see if she can untangle  the Japanese , she's pretty fluent[ it's ALL riddles to me]. I might be interested in the -229B IF it's accurate.

The Google translate I have is pretty good, he states that the checks one, three, and six months after surgery showed no adverse changes, so he was able to return to work, if in another twelve months there are no adverse changes/metastasis he's made a full recovery.
