Default Dirty Birdy !!
Hey Tipo 750,...

Boy, you got me all excited when you mentioned building a Dirty Birdy!! Have you had any thoughts how you would build it, (wood or fiberglass fuse./ built-up or foam wing)??

How about, what engine would you put in it?? I've always had thoughts about using a 91 Surpass in a built-up wooden Dirty Birdy. Using a tail dragger configuration with retracts would be a splendid combination !! Those are just my thoughts on what I'd consider the perfect Dirty Birdy. I'd like to hear what you think??

In fact that is what got me into this crazy game we call "pattern flying". A good friend gave me a "modified" DB with an inverted 91 Surpass and retracts. Awesome flying plane!! Can't wait to build another!!

Signed,
Steve T
