The house we're building already has a 24 x 36 foot shop.
My plan is to build a low and slow high wing stump jumper as
soon as we move in. I loved the feel of the RV-6. It flew
as if it was a part of me. But, now, I want an airplane
that I can land (and take off..) from our family ranch. I
want a plane that I can spot friends homes and the deer that
are ready to "harvest".

I also want an airplane that is able to fly so slow that I
can 'hover' over the nudist camp...

This post put a tear in my eye John. I hope you do it.

Well John sounds like you need a CGS Hawk ,I've spotted deer,taken off on short
unimproved fields and checked out the topless gals at the private lake here in
Ohio. Lets talk :-) Take off in less than 200" landings the same cruise at 70
-90 mph depending on engine and slow fly at 35 or so with the flaps down. Got
single and 2 place.....End of obvious commercial

See ya

Damn, Chuck! A 200 inch takeoff? What have you done to the new models, to
be able to do that? ;-o)

OOPs I meant 200 "FEET " LOL!!! Actually 200 inches is 16.67 feet and I bet in a
30 mph wind with full flaps ... :-)

The JATO option, obviously. Do we have to 'splain every detail to you? :-)

Chuck:

John's a pretty big boy. I'm not so sure the Hawk would fly him. He
needs a Piper Cub minimum. Hell, I'm a runt next to John and I weigh
250.

Do you have a mod for big men on that thing?

Put a 582 on this one and widen the cockpit to whatever is
comfortable...
