This is fantastic news to fill a long term void in the flow of spice. There was little resource to be acquired, engineered data was second cousin to napkins. Work process is going to be a definite improvement. Is there disclosure relative to baseline CNC will exist within each gear size/scale family? 

Best wishes on their golden opportunities! Sounds like there could be backbone resource to see this through. Electrify to expedite this onshore opportunity.

Century Jet Models has been purchased by AARC Warbirds.
For more information please contact 763-286-3036 or you can email us at sales@aarcwarbirds.com.

I spoke with Darren Bitzer at AARC and he is working to re-introduce some of the CJM kits.
Is he the chap that acquired Leo Spychalla's molds for the Bates Wildcat? Supposedly he was working to revive the fuselage mold, but it's been years since I've heard anything.

I honestly don't know, but it is certainly possible. A few years ago, I purchased a Bates Wildcat canopy from Darren Bitzer. He may be the new purveyor for Leo's Wildcat parts.
