What happened to John Overstreet?

The mini FW-190 has been pulled too. I thought I recalled the F-16 being listed as a limited series??

Looks like the F-16 is now gone from the store now, too. I wonder if FT could hire someone new in Johns' absence to plan more Master Series-style airplanes for us foamboard addicts...or at least restock the older planes.

They need to get an agreement with john overstreet to cut the kits he designed in OH. As someone mentioned the masters series, at least the jets, appeared to all be getting produced at his place in MO, so as his interests went elsewhere, the inventory dwindled to aero. Not good while there is still a lot of demand.

Hi Flite Test Team. Any update as to when we will get new Master Series designs from John Overstreet?

I thought John was going to post the plans for the turtle deck and the nose of the F-14...so in the event or a crash or maintenance we can cut out more on our own. I would be more than happy to purchase another kit but now all but the F-18 are sold out so I can't even do that. I crashed by F-14 some time back broke parts of the wing mechanism along with some other bits. I really want to fix it and get it in the air again

For months now, we are not hearing from or about John Overstreet nor about his fantastic Master Series planes. What is happening? Has he left the Flite Test team? Are we going to see new Master Series planes? Some update would be highly appreciated!
