Stuart If the medical gig does not keep paying the bills, I truly believe you could have a career as the next Ed McMahon. Everybody needs a really good straight man with a sense of humor. I about spit out my coffee when I read that.

Username Protected wrote: He said in video it came out 200lbs heavier than he expected. Yes he did say that, but back on p. 23 of this thread, in Dec of 2017, was posted a screenshot of the Raptor website's spec page citing an empty weight of 2000 lbs. Today that page still lists an empty weight of 2300 lbs. http://raptor-aircraft.com/specs.htmlSo the 2900 lb reality may be 200 lbs heavier than he "expected", but it's 600 lbs heavier than he's still advertising and 900 lbs heavier than he was advertising when people signed up.
