And for a week the F3F is free if you buy the Bulldog.

I know someone's gotta say, so I will:
WHO LET THE (bull)DOG OUT? WOOF, WOOF-WOOF!

Have fun all!

loading up the bull dog :-)

for a quick spin

***blanston12*** · July 3rd, 2018, 05:06

Just took her up for a quick spin and have to say she flies great! So far I have only found one issue, when I took her up the first time I instinctively hit the 'G' key to raise the gear and then thought 'oh yeah, not retractable' and continued with my flight. But when I landed this happened.

I then pressed the gear key again and she popped out of the ground. Not really an major issue but thought I would share it.

And yes I crash detection is turned off.

Looks good! For us europeans we have to wait until JF or the two others upload them. Can't wait.

Seriously? Why's that? I've bought from Australia and the US in the past.

***thefrog*** · July 3rd, 2018, 11:29

Are we actually prevented from purchasing it if we’re in the EU?

**speedy70** · July 3rd, 2018, 11:46

It is all to do with the new EU value added tax collection.

***Roger*** · July 3rd, 2018, 11:50

If you visit the purchase page at AH your are told that if you live in the EU you have to purchase from their agents and cannot purchase directly from AH. I believe the EU value added tax defeats AH's purchase software.

**Pips** · July 3rd, 2018, 15:17

Wasn't it the Bristol Bulldog that Douglas Bader was flying when he crashed and lost his legs?

From memory spin recovery wasn't the only drawback of the design, something about directional stability at low speeds also comes to mind.

Definitely on my list to purchase. Always up for anything with two wings.

**speedy70** · July 3rd, 2018, 15:22

Yes it was.

Cheers Chris

Hey Roger,

Sort of. The EU VAT rules are such that aeroplaneheaven would become taxcollectorheaven instead. The easiest option so we can still have fun and make stuff was to turn over all EU based sales over to the stores and let them work out the minefield of taxes and fees. Not to mention that we can keep the prices down a little by not having to employ a tax accountant every 3 months.

To all :
I have been notified that FSpilotshop will be up and running soon ( today or tomorrow cant work it out because the world is not flat so we have time zones

). Also the offer is going to be at all stores but will work within each stores framework but most importantly you will still get a free F3F. I've also made sure that you are considered a purchaser of the F3F as well, so you would get notified of any upgrades and deals based on the F3F in the future.

Cheers

Any news on the release of the Lancaster?

Cheers Chris

**bazzar** · July 3rd, 2018, 16:20

Third stage testing at the moment.

Cheers

it's a great offer - the F3F you have made is an excellent model. Wondering aloud if those who already own the F3F might instead have the Gulfhawk..?
asking for a friend..

**dhasdell** · July 3rd, 2018, 21:46

Yes it was. I don't know abut the new one, but the old AH Bulldog included his a/c as one of the colour schemes.

**bazzar** · July 3rd, 2018, 22:33

Yes the new Bulldog includes the Bader scheme.
As regards the Gulfhawk, I'm afraid not, that is a Just Flight exclusive product.

**hairyspin** · July 3rd, 2018, 23:16

Yes, slow rolls at under 50 feet are frowned on, FO Bader: valuable aircraft have been bent that way.

**jeansy** · July 4th, 2018, 01:40

good to see 1 of the 8 RAAF schemes

No worries, all tongue in cheek - it’s just a pity that every time an offer like this is made I somehow seem to already own the bonus. Lol. For those on the fence get down and make the buy - that Grumman is carrier qualified and a beauty all by itself, getting it and the Bulldog for that price is a great deal.

**MDIvey** · July 4th, 2018, 06:31

Just got my copy from justflight.... wasn't on their front page... had to search for it.

Matt

**MDIvey** · July 4th, 2018, 07:22

How disappointing... the installer won't work. I've let JF know with a support ticket but I've been itching to try this out but it will have to wait.

The dogs been a bad boy and put back in the kennel for now

Matt

**speedy70** · July 4th, 2018, 07:39

Same with the one I purchased from FSpilotshop cos I could not find the just flight one.I also swore I would never deal with pilotshop again due to their fee for refreshing downloads.Ticket submitted.

Cheers Chris
