Great Escape with Turtle Deck!!
In my original message I mentioned that I was building a Joe Bridi Great Escape with an inverted mounted 91 Surpass. A few other modifications that I've made include building up a full trutle deck after the fiberglass canopy.
Also,.. I'm using a conventional tail dragger setup with retracts. These alterations have produced a very up-to-date modern looking pattern plane.
In these pictures, with radio gear installed, the plane weighs in at six pounds six ounces. I truly believe the finished ready to fly weight will be less than seven pounds!!
