Didn't you get that PP for some insanely stupid good deal? Can you find me one of those insanely stupid great deals so I can do that too? Sure looks like fun!

Jim just be careful as these were subject to the fat ultralight N number rules and had a cut off date. Not a big deal for farm flying but a paper weight if you ever want to be fully legal.

I guess I wasn't interested in it for myself, got to many projects and toys already.  Was just passing on what I saw.  I think you're right about trying to get it legal if it's not already.  JImChuk
