hi

[Guest Gary in Pennsylvania]

Greetings! I am a big time vinatage ultralight enthusiast:

And have come here because the Aussie UL boom produced some fantastic designs in the 70's & 80's.

 

I'm gonna go roam around the forum now.

Hi Gary,

 

I had a quick look at your link. What a facinating collection of aircraft, many I could not remember seeing before.

 

Great collection of Bede photo memorabillia.

 

Enjoy your browsing here.

 

 

[Guest Rod]

You came bearing gifts.

 

Hi again Gary,

 

Just wanted to thank you for giving us access to this photographic documentation of every thing flying, or at least, has a prop. I love the bike with prop, man with prop, sled with prop etc. Only part way through, will pick up again tommorrow.

 

Cheers

Rod,

 

Glad you enjoy the list - But I cannot take credit for it. The VULA database is managed by Mr. Scott Perkins - I am just a sort of "field researcher" who helps expand/build his 'virtual museum'.

 

 

[Guest Rod]

Then my sincere appreciation to Mr Perkins and his researchers.

 

I logged on to the Vula site and will check out as time permits.

 

What is your favorite aircraft Gary?

Welcome anyway. Great collection. Thanks for sharing.

I didn't see the Corby Starlet. Can send info if you want it. Single seat, low wing, aerobatic, 40 year old design with several flying in the US.

[Guest Gary in Pennsylvania]

[Guest Gary in Pennsylvania]

Hmmmm.....

 

Those are the ones that I can think of off the top of my head.

 

I forgot to include the Flitplane!

 

 

[Guest Gary in Pennsylvania]

For whatever reason, I couldn't get this particular folder to open yesterday...but it's available today.

 

This design is DEFINITELY in my top 5. It's a nifty little Russian design.

 

Look at all these pics:
