I'm looking for a good set of parasol plans that would be reasonably
easy to follow for a first time builder. I don't really care about speed or cross country capability - just something to putz around the pattern and sight-see. I'm thinking that tube and fabric would be my preferred materials (low cost and high strength), but I'm open to any suggestions. Single or double place is fine. Most of the people who would go flying with me wouldn't do so in an open cockpit plane anyways, so a second seat would usually sit empty ![]() The two designs that have initially peeked my interest are the Pober Pixie and the Starlet SA500. I've also looked at the Baby Ace. Anybody have any opinions on these plans in regards to ease of construction for a first timer? Also I doubt I'd have the space to complete the whole wing in one piece, so extra points if the wing can be built in sections. Thanks. Mike Gaskins |
