None (but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night...)
Hi Mike
Now that was funny. Hope you got good A.O.P.A. rates. I've never sat
in(or on?) a trike before, let alone fly one. They are not very common
in this part of Ontario. Maybe it's something to do with the 60 below
zero temperatures and howling whiteouts. Say, I reckon they don't get
much snow down your way do they. For the longest time, I thumbed my
nose at ultralights and particularly microlights. I've had a 180 degree
turn of opinion.
I've flown a lot of types (I'm checked out on 9) of aircraft including
stick time on the old Canadair CP-107 Argus, but being strapped on to a
Challenger ultralight is incredible. You have interchangeable wings
(short and long) and you can fly it on wheels, skis of floats. It'll
land on a dime and give you back a nickel's change. Have you worked out
an hourly operating rate yet on your trike. I betcha it's only a few
bucks an hour at best. Are the insurance premiums very high
'Happy Flying'
Cheers...Chris
