RAH?
So is anybody doing anything worth talking about?
I did the detail design for an all wood elliptical wing that a friend is building. Low wing single seat Sportster. His airframe was started by Paul P some years back. Paul did beautiful welding. He's ready to have the fuel tank welded up now, and is making control system parts. Anyway, it's on the gear, wings are about finished and the engine is hung. (but they all say that, don't they?) So who has done what lately? Richard |

Richard The pegazair has made some progress over the winter but we got shut down by the extreme cold in Feb. Warming up now. Meantime we've been working on things like electic trim, led lighting and fuel gauges etc. |

Bad knee was making it tough to climb out, so the ejection seat makes it easy! http://www.bowersflybaby.com/tech/eject.html Ron Wanttaja |

Good to hear from you again and to know you are still flying the "baby" - bad knee or not. My partner on the Pegazair just had both knees replaced over the last couple of years. |
