facthunter Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 Don't know how you would get into the front cockpit of some of those. Talking of Radials, Rotec Radial Have big discounts on their stuff right now. Nev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yenn Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 I wonder why Rotec have big discounts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClintonB Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 Ragwing Special is a mini pitts replica, some excellent Rotax 80hp videos on YouTube. Was originally powered by a ski doo motor(Kawasaki) with a belt reduction. Around 16 foot span from memory. Ailerons on bottom wing only. I have plans and spruce still in 10” by 6” slabs to start but too much on, might be a retirement project. it can be built as a single or two seater, looks better as a single with canopy.

ClintonB Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 I wouldn't mind that one, but it would come with a side of DIVORCE. Looks like a whole lotta fun. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

facthunter Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 They turn into YOUR mother, but look like HER mother. IF you get the plane and master it it could be a win win. If your missus is the real deal she'll fly it more than you do and you will have to get your OWN. Nev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RFguy Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 Talking about planes, actually I want to fly Rob Glenn's Breezy aircraft.... No issue with CO in the cockpit.... Certainly would disuade all non aviation wives, I suspect. It lives at Parkes, hangared. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pmccarthy Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 Have seen some crazy looking ones in the USA. Makes you realise that there is more to flying than performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

facthunter Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 The Breezy will test your ability to get the pitch attitude right without much to refer to . I reckon quite a few pilots would never get the hang of it at all. Nev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
