Right on Blume!!!!Big difference in a Faa certified shops.

A certified FAA commercial t5313 b would be in the neighborhood
of $650,000 USD each.

Turbines used in boats are not flight worthy Turbines.

Default Smoking gun

Everyone will see and hear about the smoking gun.we are documenting everything as thoroughly as we can-not only for our own piece of mind but for criminal lawsuit.This story has taken some unbelievable twist and turns and uncovered more and more ****ed up ****.The next step at this point is depositions then we will be presenting our case.This is a case we are not going to lose.right now this isolated incident has cost me personally over $150k and $20k in lost sponsorship (so far).I've been forced to take out loans against my equipment to pay for this.
Obviosly everyone will see JBS running strong without anything holding us back from this point foreword-it's a huge relief for me and my team-back to the JBS racing that we know we are-fully functional,fully capable,and fully motivated to kick ass!

They also build some for boats that are not faa certified for flight and are no where close to 650k each.
