AIRPLANES!

I looked at the Savannah myself, I just had to being a Georgia boy by birth!
HAHA From what I could see of it in the pictures I saw I really liked it.
Glad tompet cleared up some differences to the 701, because my first thought
was how similar they were. I guess when it comes down to it alot of planes
are very close in resemblance to another, good to see some actual
difference.
I will check into the king KT-76 transponder as was mentioned earlier in
the thread. The avionics is really going to be the old budget buster for
me..but I don't want junk either. That's a fine line in avionics ,
affordable----junk. HAHA
Bob the KIS is a nice looking bird, darn good cruising speeds as well!
Wish the sport pilot thing would allow alittle faster and heavier. I don't
know if I would enjoy all the composite stuff. I learned after 20 years that
I hated messing with fiberglass and such...it just ate me alive! Some people
it doesn't bother, and I do feel it's a good material to build with. It just
itches me absolutely to death..no matter how much I cover myself! No I won't
do any body work on vettes either..I itch thinking of it! HAHA

Hello Gang!
Just dropping a line to find out what projects people are working on
in
the group. Have not seen alot of aircraft talk , just rambling about Zoom
etc. Even my inquiry about the Mini-Coupe became a boater talk session !
HAHA Myself I am interested in the Hummel Ultracruiser Plus, Sonex, and
the
Mini-Coupe. Any input on those birds would be appreciated. Also if there
are
any avionics techs here could you reccommend a good transponder
w/altitude?
Avionics is definitely my weakness! Doing the retired thing so of course
I
will be looking for good deals on avionics and good tips to spend my
money
wisely. Yeah we all know , the wisest thing is not sink money into a
plane
...but heck we just can't help ourselves can we?!?


I let my web site do my talking about my project. I think you will find
plenty
there to keep you occupied about home building a great 4-place composite
aircraft for at least a few hours.
