Ben Haas N801BH I wonder what the gross, useful, and payload weights might be? 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. Corky Scott |

"Gig Giacona" wr.giacona@ wrote 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. **** Reply *** 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. -- FF |

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!
