Gunny,

Your plane is incredible. I like the way you built your own props, but I would be worried about prop failure.

DOes your back ramp work? I will begin working on my 132" Palmer 130 early next year. I plan to have my ramp functional, with paradrops. I found this site to supply my chutes.

Thanks for sharing your build.
