Colonel Chuck T. Winter

Colonel Chuck Winter's BobCat XL is using a Jet Cat P-70 for power. This is Chuck's first turbine jet, although he has been flying BVM ducted fan jets for over 15 years. He started with a BVM Sport Shark and progressed through BVM Aggressors and Vipers.

Chuck was a U.S. Air Force Jet pilot who flew T-33s, F-86Ds, F-102, F-106 and many propeller aircraft and said the smell of jet fuel brings back many memories.

He built and painted his BobCat because he enjoys airbrush painting and detailing and stated that his BobCat XL is the smoothest flying model jet he has ever flown. "Thanks to BVM and crew for an excellent product." Col. Chuck Winter.
