Group,
First flight of my used fs #1030 happened yesterday,
63 deg. sunny, light winds and a test pilot, my brother. he has tail time and i
don't yet. performance was superb as reported and the only incident was 1 soft
ground nose over resulting in the need for some glass work around pitot tube,
very minor but i need input from group on a nose skid so that i don't repeat it.
minor control adjustments and i will start my taxi practice after the rain stops
again.
thank to all,
Wade FS#1030
do not archive

Greetings,
As most of you know, I was in the process of re-working Bill Wood's old SS
for a single rotor engine. The talk of Lasers recently made me start
thinking about those, which led to the other plane that I've looked at for
years, a Sonerai. As it turns out, I just bought a Sonerai project that I
plan to convert for my single rotor test bed.
Bottom line is that I still have the SS airframe, which has been
disassembled, and stripped of fabric and Lexan. It needs to have a few
tubes replaced (too many holes drilled for trim tabs), and at least one
cracked weld repaired. The nose was smashed during hurricane Ivan, and one
of the gear legs was bent when I got the plane. I have a new nose, two new
gear legs, a 4x8 sheet of Lexan, and a new covering kit (no silver or
paint), along with some misc items like tubing, rivets, and motor mounts.
There is no engine, on instruments.
I'd like to get somewhere in the neighborhood of $10k for this, so I won't
feel like I lost too much money on this whole deal. If someone wants it,
great. Otherwise, I'll end up stashing it at the hanger, and maybe I'll
finish it some day.
Cheers,
Rusty (just don't say it Dennis)
