It had Proving flight auth when I sold it (family pressure as a result of Martha's demise).

The next guy turned it dayglow orange, added the nose wheel, then sold and bought a MAC CDL.

As far as I can gather this is 3rd owner since then. He went back to white and redid the interior...

Used to look like this. (Pic taken on test flight day that why wheel spats are off, but test pilot was on standby at Spoeries and never made it.)

Never kiss and tell :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: but not as many as RUDIX.... (^^) (^^) (^^) (^^) (^^) . What I will say is I have owned more aeries than cars :oops: :oops: :oops: :oops: :oops: This was my first. Took me 5 years to get it "finished" and by time I finished it, finances allowed more expensive toys (read more supposed reliable engines) and "Wery Pretty Indeed" had to make way for a blik.

If it still looked like that I would have bought it! The current paint job is terrible!! I saw the paint and thought if it looks like that on the outside :shock: Did not know it was yours, nog reg numbers on it at the moment and wings were somewhere else.

But now I wonder, if the structure is sound the paint is nothing....

I looked at buying it back, but the Dayglow Orange guy did some funny things, so I gave it a miss. Steve Boshoff did most of the work for/with me originally so it was sound before, but now eish, I don't know. It is also now a bit on heavy side IIRC.... Think you done well with the one you got.... puff Sad to see it look like this. They just look soooooo KAK with a nosewheel. Almost like it not ment to fly.... :P

If it is the one in the guy's yard close to Stormvoel road in Pretoria then I won't touch it with a pole, not even someone else's pole!!
