Update on the Javelin

javelin

Ah, how fast they grow. When we last saw the Javelin it was indoors and undergoing final assembly. Now it's outdoors and ready for flight. Engine and taxi testing has begun and Flight Operations has completed mid and high-speed taxi tests, in which the Javelin exceeded speeds of 100 miles per hour. In the most recent Aviation Technology Group newsletter,  CEO George Bye is quoted as saying, "This is a very exciting time for ATG. The aircraft has successfully taxied and run its engines and systems. It will not be long before we see this remarkable, high-performance jet take flight."
