Well, I know where one is on the West Coast: I saw it there on 2001 and
it seems to be still there. However, as of 2011 Wikipedia thinks there
are another four in the US: does anybody know where they all are?


Two of them were in Palm Beach Florida area a few years ago. One was
owned by the Barrys. I was hoping to fly that one, but they never got
the paperwork straightened out.

That's a good guess, but
Nah, the GAPA Geezer ain't nothin' but if he ain't modest.
He'd never dare compare hisself to the immortal Pez D Spencer.
Pez is in a whole 'nother league, but haven't heard much out
of him lately.

Well Sonny, if that ain't the Gall-Da#!*des't thang I ever did see!
But U's got to remember the GG is Old! And he didn't get that way by
bein' 'specially bold. 'Sides he can already stick his legs out the
sides and run 'long the ground with that GAPA without 'cuttin no holes
in his contraption. But that wide-legged stance that takes kinda
bothers him, 'caus them bionic knees they installed in him a 'couple
years ago ain't all they was cracked up 'ta be. He 'kinda got sold a
bill 'a goods on them things. 'Sides that, it really does a number on
the GG;s ingueenal hernia sac too, 'runnin like that. Nah, the GG's
'probly gonna
have ta settle for maybe 'sumptin like these here kids is doin in
Japan with one 'a them things they calls "bungees":

else maybe he's gonna try hitchin up a horse to it like them guys did
with that ULF-1 in this here video:

He been also thinkin' 'bout copyin' that guy with that glider he been
callin' the "Goat", what just rolls hisself
off the hill kinda' like this:
