What, like a Kitfox?


CH701.

There's a guy has his own grass strip just east of Burnet (shows up as
Deiterich on the San Anton sectional), he's got a 701 and I hope to go
out and take a look at it pretty soon. Just need to find the time.

It is very small but it looks quite fun for STOL operations.

Only thing about it is that, even though you only need a short space
to land in, if you do loose your engine there better be a field within
a couple of miles -- glide ratio little better than a piano ...


You'll get one of those thngs out of anywhere, but if the field is, say,
400 yards or more, you'll get an acrosport in and out of it easily. Even
shorter if ou're sharp.
