Default Mountain Models is BACK!

I realize that most of you are into foam airplanes and bARF's but for the few here like me that fly mainly balsa seeing that Brian (Mountain Models) is back at it after having a lot of serious personal setbacks is great news! Read what he has to say on his website HERE. I've known Brian for many years and like him have suffered back injury problems.They have forced me to retire but Brian is too young for that.Though he still has a few issues it looks like he's trying to bring Mountain Models back up to full steam. If you're interested in balsa kits at all it's worth a look see. EVERYONE should have one or more MM SwitchBacks in their hangar.Simply THE best balsa park flyer ever produced! Remember, BUY AMERICAN!

Sadly he doesn't seem to be around anymore.
Mountainmodels.com comes back with, ERROR 500 - INTERNAL SERVER ERROR
The latest Facebook post is from 2017.
his F22 prop jet was a fun airplane, no problem holding a high alpha pass.
