REFLECTOR: Velocity Twin First Flight

[velocityoner at yahoo.com]

According to my sources although it has flown that's about all it's done due to the push to get it painted before Sun N Fun. Since it has more wing area and weighs close to an XL it would seem that it will have respectable VYSE. It will have no VMC as the canard will lower the nose prior to loosing directional control. Keep in mind the Duane would never sell any airplane that won't do as advertised so no matter what the conclusion the flight testing determines, the team at Velocity will give the world an airplane that will both perform and turn heads.

PS. Anyone have a pair of motors and some cash they want to trade for a flying Velocity?
