Slightly off topic but since someone else kinda brought it up...How is the vinyl paint job on the seat holding up? Which brand paint did you use?

It is holding up well, some small spots have peeled mostly on the piping, that seat cover was 14= years old and had all kinds of grease stains on it.
But nothing that a touch up with a brush can't help.

I did fly for 1.25 hours today, I flew over to peachstate and gassed up with fresh 100 low lead, Then flew over a friend of mines house over by the Atlanta motor speedway, he has an ultralight strip called Pecan Patch.
Right after I landed 2 piper cubs flew over in formation, I know where they came from because I buzzed their airstrip earlier...
Man this fixed wing flying is a piece of cake, just watch the airspeed.

Oh yeah and I was thinking, If I could find one of these flightstars without wings-------it would make a great 2 place gyro!!

Put a rotorhead on yours as well as the wings.... :noidea

So you can choose to take the wings off and put rotors on, or vice versa.... :)

Dont worry about the fin, the rotors will take care of that and make some clearance :maga :laughing :pop :yoda2 :Wolvie

:Jim

:Confederate
