Tale of the Kilted Flyer

[MacMullen]

Sounds like a great day. It looks like you'd have a nice view out those large windows.

Except, am I the only one who thinks that Ikarus is a poor choice of names for a plane?

[Sir Robert]

If the throttle is between your legs where is the joystick?

[Panache]

Pretty plane. It sounds like a fine day of flying.

Cheers

Here in the USA Ikarus' are in the category of Light Sport Aircraft. To fly a LSA you need a sport pilot license which are almost as difficult to obtain as a Private Pilot's License, but you can fly w/o a medical certificate VFR day only. I've flown a few homebuilts w/ Rotax engines and the amount of power fom 5 gals/hours is amazing. I'm sure you had some fun. O'Neille
