Turbo Legend

Here is the Legend. I mistyped it, it is a Turbine Legend, not a Turbo Legend. Anyway, here is what it looks like. It's quick, but has good low speed performance as well. Available in kit form for about $25,000.

I also have a video of 2 of them at Camarillo this past air show. Low altittude, high speed passes with high angle climbs. I'll try and make a low bandwidth version to post if anyone is interested. The current one (High quality) is about 120MB! I can probably do a low-bandwidth, lower quality version of about 4 MB or so.
