I bought several info packets and a couple of sets of plans. I read pilot reports, joined listserves, and visited builders of several different designs. I "tried on" one prospective design and saw that to get in and out I'd need to bend my knees in a way they really didn't want to go. FlyBabyBuilder -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Same here. WHEN THE EARTH WAS VERY YOUNG, there were several aircraft that I dreamed of owning some day. One dream machine was a Mooney Mite. I would have given a left nut for one.... Until I sat in one of those torture racks. Poof... end of dream! Ditto for a Smith Mini-Plane. Ditto for the Midget Mustang. OTOH, the Van's RV-3 fits me like a glove. Try before you buy/build, fer sure. It can $ave a lot of heartache. -Barnyard BOb - FlyBaby driver of the early 1960's |
