Re: American Aerolites Eagle Two Seater

Thanks- it was a conversation with Fred last week that brought all these memories back. I still have the Pfledge on my license.
Seems us old flyers have managed to survive. I used to do a lot of new type tests and I count 32 crashes in my history.
Still here.

Re: Who flies what and where?

Thanks John, I just feel a Cheetah is the spam can of microlights!
Looking for something more esoteric, and preferably a taildragger.
I loved the little Teddy, click even if it had enough adverse aileron drag to scare you in a tight turn with no bottom rudder!

Re:Sadly Sold Storch - Now What?

Here is my 2 cents worth. Own an Aeroprakt A20 and that just sold, and just bought late Rob Mirtle's Storch. Unfortunately my wife cannot manage the climb into such a high cockpit, so just sold that as well after one short ferry flight . Pretty much heartbroken as she is a lovely little machine. Loo...

American Aerolites Eagle Two Seater

And next on my list of vintage microlights is the Eagle, were any two seaters imported into SA?
If I remember correctly after speaking to Romauld the designer a few years back, the Eagle is the only microlight in which nobody was ever killed!

Re: Annual Inspection Assistance Please

Hi Thank you very much for you helpful and quick reply. Luckily it is a change of ownership inspection and not an initial. I own an AMO, but we are not versed in NTCA at all. They have gone through and inspected the aircraft, I now need to get it signed out and an ATF issued with me as the new owner...

Annual Inspection Assistance Please

I need assistance please on the signing out of a 500KG MAUW plans built aircraft, who in the Lanseria area can sign it out, or can a normal AMO do it?
Once signed out, what steps then? I presume I have to deal with RAASA for an ATF?

Harrismith One Stop

I hear that there is a landing strip or field neat to or near the Harrismith One Stop. I need to stop in that area for fuel, can anyone tell me if there is a strip at the One Stop?
