Dent Aviation at Camden is in the final stages of putting one of these on the Australian Register.

I saw some footage of it in the STOL comp at Oshkosh. Pretty impressive, but it still looks like a praying mantis.

But north of US$1m is a lot to pay. Granted it does what he wants so thumbs up wow that’s a lot of cash.

I'll get some pix of the one at Dent's tomorrow.

I've been following the build on his channel, that Wilga is a beast. Good on him.

Another video including the Wilga, along with other aircraft, waterskiing.

**GIGGLE** Yes, I thought he looked almost embarrassed that he'd spent over a $Mil on it. . . . What an enthusiastic bloke though !

If it needs wheels that big it could do as well with tracks. Now wouldn't that look good.

This is definitely a 'Feelgood' video. . it Must be, as I feel Good. And Wifey says I'm the archetypal Miserable Bugger. . . .

I followed the build on Mike Pateys channel and it was amazing to watch. Some serious and inovative engeneering. I was really impressed with how fast he fabricates carbon fiber parts and while working full time.

 

Hopefully I will have a man cave like him in my next life.... he has got money to blow on toys.

I've been following his channel too lately. I wouldn't mind having just 10% of his energy and can do attitude. I think I'm more of a Project Binky man.

I^d settle for 4% of his money

 

.......... he^s probably a plumber - great toys though
