    Default Kicking the cobwebs off...

    Been a long and interesting winter here in Idaho.. So now that the weather is turning towards spring we had a good day to go kick some cobwebs off...

    Holy smokes, Sir! If you still have cobwebs, you'll just have to live with them...

    First I have seen of the STi wing actually flying. It would appear to be, well, awesome. Not that the Titan does not help it look good, LOL. Any comments on the STi package with 100hp pulling it that you would like to share?

    Anyway, thanks for sharing the video. Really added something special to my day! Thanks again, John!!!

    Can I bring The Mangy over and play, too?

    I guess I can speak of seeing that motor in the crate next to that airframe November of 2015 while placing my order there at the shop.
    Does that arrangement take the aircraft outside the LSA limits? If not, have you got a firewall forward cost yet including the motor?

    P.S. Awesome video!
