Hand Built Grumman Lynx

John Gaines flying his Grumman Lynx 2:45

Five years of hard work and fantastic model building by John Gaines produced this beautifully crafted and exquisitely detailed Grumman Lynx. Everything looks real down to the hand made cockpit with dials, switches, bezels, throttle controls and pilot figure. John demonstrated both his craftsmanship and the capabilities of the aircraft at our 2015 Rogue Eagles' Air Show. If you didn't know this was a model, you would swear it was a video of the full scale airplane. Strong gusting wind provided an exciting landing making John and the Lynx winners with the crowd.
