    Flight simulator?
     Hey guys. I'm not a real pilot yet, I have quite a bit of experience in powered parachutes, but I know that's not going to do much good when I start training to fly an Avid. It's cold and I am eager to get to work on becoming a decent pilot, so I started wondering if there's a flight simulator set up that you guys think would be helpful to a wanna be? Thanks for your thoughts.

    Thanks Jim. Is it possible it's a iv with some c replacement components?

    Mk iv or C?
    Hey y'all. This plane is on barnstormers, advertised as a iv. My buddy thinks it's actually a C. I'm a dummy, how do I know for sure it's a iv? N number is 578ds. Thanks ahead of time! I know y'all will steer me right.

    Thanks Yamma. I had Jim send the Apex to William. He's working on an engine mount, exhaust and other components for me now. Ian is doing the harness.

    I've got a 582 blue head on a powered parachute and 503s on two other ones. They're good engines,  just expensive and some work like you said. I've got a Yamaha street bike and it just runs trouble free year after year, that dependability is why I decided to go with the Apex instead of a 912.

    I'm going to try to carry on the torch Chris. I plan to put the Yamaha Apex engine in it. I just paid for the engine two days ago. Did you fly it with a 582 Chris?

    I don't have pants Jim, I have some extra mk iv wing components, and down the road possibly small wheels.

    I talked to the seller again. The serial number is 1293d, and the invoice is dated '93. He said he thinks it is a heavy hauler. Is the gauge of the wing tubing the only difference in a heavy hauler? It also has the wing storage compartment. I'm working out the details of how he wants the deposit.
