Default Very talented artist

All of his works look fantastic - he's really very talented, and I didn't know that he also built an -8. Impressive!

The video is impressive, but to actually see his plane in person is truly breathtaking.

Lots of details that were not in the video-----probably due to time constraints.

For example, the "carbon fiber" on the roll bar and panel isn't carbon fiber. John did that look with paint

Yup - John's airplane is truly amazing - worth going to a show to see it if it is in your area!
