Congrats KFC, may you have many happy hours flying BUN. I originally assembled BUN for KFA as a factory demo unit, that was why it was so brightly coloured. You could hardly miss it. Fodies as it was....

Thanx guys, we did a few mods to make her lighter. She handles like a dream and is in perfect trim. The motor is a 912 UL with the Xtra piston conversion wich pushes out in the region of 90 - 95 horses. The nose wheel is for the training at the school. :cry:

Did my instructors conversion today and trailored her back to Komatipoort. We arrived safely and she is allready assembled and ready to fly first thing in the morning. I still have to spray the nose wheel tomorrow but first some serious flying must be done. :lol: :lol: :lol:
