Siai Marchetti: This is a fast good looking light aircraft. I was
surprised to find there are plans available out there (If I remember

The plans are for the Falco, a wooden design, smaller and similar in
looks to the SF-260.


Ah yes. I heard of take off accidents to one of each of these types
- an attempt to take off over wet grass in each case...

Did the wet grass contribute to the accident ?? Jerry W


Apparently, the wet grass provided a surprisingly draggy surface, so
that a hedge appeared before daylight....
