A good read... kinda like real life stuff to me, as well. Aeroplanes... L4(not just a regular ol yellow bird), Stearman, Staggerwing... I just smile when taking any one of em out... Oh also, Bell 47, not a late model heli... I understood your article :)
Thanks. A little understanding goes a long ways. If you've got all of those, most of which are flying machines I'd love to own, you don't need any understanding. :-)
Hmmmm! You're the first to have that problem. On the other hand, they may be doing it as a "donation". I haven't spent any time checking out that system, but it is time I do. Thanks for the nudge. When I get it figured out, I'll include it in a blog.
Budd, maybe I’ve been reading automotive & aviation magazines too much, but I always want to go faster with more horsepower!
Presently I’m drooling over airplanes like an F-1 Rocket or the SF-260 that you’ve mentioned. I’m bored with the 150 mph and lethargic rate of climb I get from my present airplane. Unfortunately I’m upside down in the darn thing which prevents me from trading it in. As they say, “a dime holding up a dollar”! What do I do??
Rockets are one of my favorites. And I can't give you advice about being upside down in your current airplane. If I could, I'd have a prosperous business built around doing that kind thing.
You brought up something that I've considered a lot. When taking a car trip I often think about how cool it would be to be flying over the terrain I was traversing. When flying cross-country I often think about how cool it would be to be driving through the area I was flying over. I really want to do both at once. Being a human definitely has its limitations.
Definitely a great idea! I'm thinking about getting a trailer for the Firestar if I can afford it. If I end up only being able to fly an ultralight I will definitely have a trailer for it. We'll see what the future holds.

I was trying to sign up as a "yearly rate subscriber"... and it would not accept???
Got any other was to sign up

Trailer a Skyfox when driving. When you see something interesting, find a side road, unhook and takeoff!
See how simple life can be?
You can thank me later. :-)

Keep me in the loop.
