Better estimates on delivery

I found a print out of a 21C promotional release of the up coming Avenger. The date of that release was February 10, 2004.
I know these new releases take time and I know they come on a slow boat from China, but 17 months and still nothing? Give me a break! I've also read on these pages about the 2005 release of the 21C F-86 and Mig-15. Well, here we are in mid July and frankly, I don't believe I'll see either one of these two airplanes this year. I'm begining to think I may not see the Avenger this year either.

I wish 21C would just tell us the truth about availablity. Please 21C, give us realistic dates.

Yes, it's frustrating, but it does look like we'll see those particular pieces at some point.

a big part of the problem has been the financial instability of the company. Then there have been various other problems come along since they have been doing better. I think, in another year or so, you'll see their estimates will be more on the money.

They are trying however, they're not just doing it to piss us off; though it seems like it at times.

I don't know, Aferg, it might bring some joy to their day. "Did you see how much they're b@#$@#ing about the Avenger? Let's postpone it another 3 months."

Even better "How's the Zero?" "Ready to ship" "Great, let's tell them maybe 2009!"

The wayward estimated delivery dates seems to be 21st's MO at least for now, but at least it gives us some hope.
