Ballard

@Yenn I got a hold of Ken and had a chat to him this morning. He put me onto another fellow who I had a good chat to as well. It seems I might not be able to fit in it! I didn't think 6'1" was that tall... I've emailed Ballard to see if I can extract some more detailed dimensions from them. So far so good! Cheers,

cscotthendry, Yeah they have 400 hour quickbuild kit for the Virus SW, which is the one I took a liking too. I got a sit in a sinus a while back, which as far as I'm aware, has the same cockpit as the Virus. My forehead was right on the Wing spar...

Yenn, thanks for the lead, I'll do some googling and see if I can get a hold of him. Cheers.

It looks like a good set-up doesn't it cscotthendry. To bad I can't find any current flyer reports... I've a pretty loose mission profile of; Conventional gear High Wing 110+kt cruise Semi-off airport capable Love the Glastar but it doesn't fit the budget for now. I can't fit in any of the Pipistrel machines either... My head hits the wing spar. The only one remaining is the Pelican! Just looking for builder/owner/flyer reports. Cheers.

Hello, Just landed I supposes, I've actually been using the forums for a while now but only just registered. I'm a CPL with about 350hrs that are all private, I decided to not make the leap to professional flying for reasons that I'm still not sure of! I've been doing some serious googling for an aircraft kit. I came across the Ultravia Pelican which is now built by Ballard sport aircraft. I know there are 3 registered with the RAA at the moment. Was wondering if I can have a chat to some who owns one of them? Cheers!
