"bush flying" in the suburbs?

I fly one every day and it is a kool bird for short fields. Out here in
Jackson Hole Wy, the places are unlimited for landing spots.

I wonder what the gross, useful, and payload weights might be?

Cool! I didn't realize Santa had a Chauffer.

I guess as the world gets more and more populated, the Reindeer just
don't cut it anymore...

Didn't you hear? He had to switch to something else, 'cause the reindeer
kept burning up from the air friction.

I thought it was because the reindeer flatulence was doing in the
ozone.

Ben's Zenith is a bit out of the ordinary in a world where STOL's are
already off the beaten path. He has a lot of experience in racing,
and bolted an aluminum block V-8 to his firewall. He has a bit more
power than the Rotax powered Zenith's.

In NJ you can't land anywhere except and approved landing facility,.

NJ Statues

6:1-2. Definitions
As used in this chapter:
landing or taking off while engaged in carrying passengers for hire
or
reward or instructing students for hire or reward

This statute applies to commercial operations.

So you CAN go alone or take your friends, as long as you don't charge
them
or receive a reward, and land in all the fields you want without prior
permission from the 'commission. Of course you would want to approve it
with the land owner first.

That is what I thought at first too. However the section dealing with
emergency landings appears to prohibit, without regard to com-
mercial operation, non-emergency landings at non-licecensed fields.
But maybe I need to read it again 2-3 more times.

Yes. Santa's sleigh is for sale on ASO! I sent a message asking whether
the red G-suit came with the sleigh, as an 8+1 reindeer powered sleigh has
serious G-forces on take-off. The seller replied:

Thank you for your interest in the sleigh. Since Santa is very busy

this time of year, I'm helping him with the sale of his pre-owned

sleigh.

Excellent question. Mrs. Claus is the sole supplier of Santa's red,

fur lined, soot resistant G-Suit with a built in auto heater. Due

to Santa's ever-increasing waistline (too many cookies), Mrs. Claus

is constantly making new suits for him. As every suit requires a

tremendous amount of labor, she unfortunately would not be able to

supply the sleigh buyer with one. She recommended checking with NASA for a
similar version.

Please let us know if you have any further questions and have a

wonderful holiday season!

Best regards,

The Honorary Elves at ASO

Does the Sleigh come with the red G-suit required to safely pilot an

8+1 reindeer configured sleigh? I am unaware of a private source for

said suit and fear blackout upon takeoff.
