Chuck & Draft, the idea of leaving Mariposa was to get off that mountain and get away from the snow and rain, for the most part it worked but sometimes stuff just happens. Last night I had almost a foot of the stuff but it's all compacted this morning and we have a breeze blowing so with luck it could be gone by tomorrow. David, I moved from Wash. when I was 11, I'm now the only one in the family living out of state. I spoke to my sister yesterday, she took the time to remove her body from around the wood stove to speak to me. I'm not going to do a build thread on this plane because my building method has changed over the last couple of years. I no longer go out to the shop and spend the whole day, I go out and glue a few parts together or squirt some epoxy then walk out, it could take me months to build a plane these days. Draft, I got the plans sent to me in a file and had the plans printed from them. I may still have them in my puter, I'm sure I do but I will have to look for them. I also think I have the Bridi Sun Fli too. I will look then you can send me your email address and I can get them to you or tell you who to ask for the plans. Most of the Bridi kits are still made so there is no problem getting the Kaos kits. No short kits for me, I can cut my own kit in a few hours and I enjoy doing it all myself. Remember, the old pattern planes were pretty heavy too but today you can build them lighter if you want. I wish there was a SPA here but it hasn't caught on in the west.
