Default Texas Parasol Plans...

now here is a perfect example of what I am looking for. free plans, a design
that looks like it could allow a number of different engines, both two
stroke and four, both aircraft and automotive AND other.

my only complaint with it is that the weight loads are tight. looks like a
great grasshopper type plane, with the possibility of using it for a bit
more.

now to find a similar design with a higher payload and room for an extra
seat.


Tater, despite what the America Bashing Third World (tm) thinks, ALL aircraft
are similarly restrictive on weights. You simply can not pile on excess
weight on any airplane and produce a successful flying machine.

There have been some twos built this way, but they are restricted to
Normal Category maneuvering limits. (That may change in the near future when
Al Robinson finishes his Texas Pete - A side-by-side two seater with a much
heavier built wing.)

This is a great little baby buggy. Inexpensive to build and fly, a great
flyer, and with a proven history.

I offer it as an excellent choice for a first time build.
