This plane looks interesting

You'll get it if you start--- I've been plodding along for over a year now. Time, money and weather are some of the issues, but the real reason I want to take my time is because I'd rather be thorough and make sure I really understand everything as well as developing skill to a high level before setting off on my own! There will be many years to enjoy flying.... Strangely enough, I like the theory and all the other knowledge associated with it Good luck and hope you do get into it.... I waited too long! Regards Mark

Too cold in a trike... Well, at least in NSW

Drift HD Ghost looks good, but is still pricey

Why do gays always want a separate group for everything? Your sexuality has nothing to do with flying a plane - we aren't flying naked to a weekend retreat! As others have said, we have no group for bald, fat, ugly or old pilots (small group)? Personally, I don't care what your preferences are - I respect good pilots - any age, gender, race or religion

Tom, I'm moving to Tassie as soon as my girls finish high school (6years) I'll be flying in the Huon valley (surges bay) I'll expect you to have your licence by then! See you in the skies Mark

Looks to good to be true

http://www.stolspeed.com/origins-701-savannah The savannah looks good and probably is good - but was the design ripped off... Maybe a separate thread...

Have you got a plane yet Alec?

Excellent plane... I've found many on foreign websites that are very interesting

Why don't we need to turn on or off an electric fuel pump for a 912 powered trike?

Im sure it was sold.... this is a small pic of it

David I looked at an ex us coast guard searey for $69 k It had everything (avionics) and was professionally built When I save a bit more... I was going to allow about $8k for shipping Mark

Pity Scott winton is not still with us

Looks great and so does the trailer setup I reckon everyone should a a trike to fly around (in addition to their other plane)....

Are you talking about Alan pylon500? In regards to the design:- Maybe one design can't do everything - maybe need a few variations ... I.e an amphibian flying boat for me and david and another plane for the rest

I'm sad to say, I think I got one of my work colleagues hooked yesterday.... Just after they bought a $99k boat...

There is a two seater version of the Airbike and the AeroMax looks very good too... teammini-max even offer free plans! However, I'm all for a new plane - You caught my interest when you mentioned amphibious... I've still got my heart set on a SeaRey (Yeah, I'd love to be able to afford a SeaMax or and Icon A5)... I could still put floats on my trike too... My only critism of the design so far is a personal one - I don't like the prop in front - especially high up!

The Airbike is cheap & looks like fun.

what is the plane 5th from bottom? I thought up something similar

love the bit - no shave that day .... Made me laugh!

Yikes!

Congratulations.... enjoy
