What dastardly scheme are you hatching, Daryl?

That Lea Kestral in the magazine, with 28 hours TT on the Prop and Airframe.668 hours on the engine.Fully enclosed trailer, all for $10 000. It would be a great fun machine.

I havent rang up or anything, it could be sold already, i was thinking if i bought it, i would throw a new 503 on it.

 

Cheers

Hmmm, know anything about a Skydart? Would love a toy of my own, one of these fine days.

Hi Carl, not realy, i have come accross them from time to time, is is interesting in the RAA mag, that one is strut braced, with a 503 ref-2166. Then there is the wire braced skydart, with a 447. Maybe somone will let us know what they are like to fly. It would be good to get a "grass roots" machine, to play with, i reckon.
