just a play on words. Pizzaz or more than one pizza. Never mind, just a bad attempt at off canter humor....

I always wanted to mount the engine at 80 deg on one of these anyway... So now here's my chance.... I can put that old "building chip" in my brain to work!!

Thanks Jess for reminding us that we all possess certain God given talents...

Default Pizazz Rebuild

This pizazz here is a rebuild. A guy put it in on a downwind dead stick. The nose was only holding on by a few shards of ply and the LG plate broke and the main gear went through the bottom of one wing. I assembled one out of the box too, and the rebuild was faster to get in the air.

Its a great airplane, I highly recommend one. I had dozens and dozens of flights on it, and would've kept going if it weren't for the dumb thumb.

Started with a OS .46 FX, flew great, but not enough power, so I put an Irvine .53 in it, that engine made awesome power, but was finicky as heck, I don't think I'll buy another irvine.

Thats the very Pizazz. I actually bought it from Swanny last winter and he said he'd take it after I told him I was throwing it in the trash. He had resurrected this plane once before after he crashed, so I figured he could do it again!

I sent you an email, get in touch with me!
