|
|
On the Murphy site, the rebel page states there is a quick build option
now available. However, I can find no additional info.
Does anyone have any info? I wonder if the riveting will be bucked
rivets rather than pulled (as in the moose). What will the time savings
be estimated at. What will be the cost? Will it be fabricated in the
Philippines ? Very interesting.

I see they now have a message on the front page stating fast build is
available for ALL models. Guess you will have to email them direct. Let us
know what you find out.

I just got off the phone with them to order an info pack and video for the Moose. They're aware that their web site is a wreck at the moment and the person I talked to said that they hope to have an all-new site ready in a week or so (hopefully).
I didn't ask about the bucked-rivet construction, but I thought I read somewhere that the QB kits were, indeed, buck riveted. I've done a lot of reading over the past week or two, and danged if I can remember where I read it.
The current price for standard kit as of this date is US$38420, and the quick build is US$64420.
Hope there's a sliver of useful information in there somewhere
Best regards,
Chris

Chris was that a typo or has the quick build gone up another $10,000 in just
the past 3 months?? It was $54K for the quick built not that long ago. Or
possibly that is with the solid rivets and the pulled is less?

Hi Scott,
That was the number I got from the person on the phone, unless I just misunderstood. It might have been $50K instead of $60K (significant, I know, but they sound alike). I'll find out in a couple of days when the info pack arrives and check back with the current numbers.
Best regards,
Chris

I finally received the information pack from Murphy a day or two ago. They've got a nice collection of aircraft, to be sure.
Unfortunately, there were no quick-build prices in the info pack -- only normal kit prices. I guess we'll just have to call if we want to real story
Best regards,
Chris

One other thing... They were out of one of the videos when I ordered and it hasn't come in yet. It was the video that covers the whole product line. Perhaps the rivet information previously asked is in that video. Hopefully I'll see it in a few more days and we'll be able to know.
Best regards,
Chris
