Dear expert soaring pilots,
What would be a nice metal equivalent of the KA6E or Foka 4? I am asking because those ships are 40+ years old now and I am concerned about the aging wood... Should I be concerned? Is there any relevant metal alternative to those ships? I would also be interested in any clues in terms of pricing. I am a 5'6'' and 137 lbs pilot. What I love about those 2 ships (apart of their outstanding behaviors and performances) are the narrow - low cockpit and their light weight for soft-weak conditions flying. I am flying out of Hope British Columbia. Last Monday I discovered a nice sexy looking plane on Jean airport in Nevada; metal and good aspect ratio. The only comment I have concerns the large and high cockpit size. Other than that this ship is very sexy and seems robust. It is a Laister Nugget LP15. Do you know any other metal ships comparable to the Laister Nugget? Thanks for all information and advises you could give to the private owner wanabee I am. Matt |
