Wow! Just returned from Airventure-2007 (Oshkosh, WI.)... didn't have enough time to see it all, as usual. This time I had to work more than last year.
Watch this video clip from my trip to Airventure 2007 at Oshkosh, WI.

Got to meet with Todd from the New Prowler Aviation, and Brian, who is currently building one of the original production Jaguar kits that George Morse had manufactured as the Old Prowler Aviation.
When I got back home, I received an email from my French friend Nic, and he sent me this picture of the original Prowler Prototype, N611AA, serial #01, which is obviously in some sort of engine rebuild(?) perhaps?

The CNC plasma cutter project is just about ready to fire and test for the first time - I just need some time to do it! Hopefully, but this weekend, I should have it test run for the first time.

Am hoping to see more of your project and have some add'l details for you.
The prototype went for sale about 2 yrs ago, I declined to buy it. The owner had it and a kit, and the proto had eaten a camshaft on the trip home from CA.
I'd imagine that this is the reason behind the rebuild.
bill at the jacobs do t org...
p.s. would love to chat sometime - am trolling for one of these kits...
Bill,
Eventually, the kit will come back as the new owners are just starting to figure out how to re-manufacture & build the Jaguar. Have patients, and faith! We'll get there from here.
