Here's a sure formula for a winning airplane. Take one or more
parts from an already proven design, add a few parts for creature
comfort and/or customer preferences, mix together with a solid team
and you have a sure-fire winner! A wrap-around windshield of Lexan
makes for excellent visibility and comfortable flying.
Optional windows are removable for open-air
flying in the summer. For power we recommend a Rotax 447, a Zenoah
G50C, or any engine up to 45 hp.
Wood was chosen as the basic building material. It is easy to
work with, dependable in its strength characteristics, and is not
bothered by the vibrations associated with 2-cycle engines.
