Hello all,
New to Biplaneforum.com.
I am torn between completing one of my own designs or just buying/building a good solid plane from someone elses design.
Looking for 150-170mph cruise, 3-4 hr endurance, solid aerobatic capability and ramp appeal for occasional X-ctry as well as $100 hamburgers.
Considering purchaseor possible build of Skybolt or SA-750 AcroDuster Too and really need to experienceone in person to help with decision. Also currently considering Thorp T-18 (flown one), Long-EZ (flown one), RV-4 (not flown) and more recently have added Skybolt 260 and AcroDuster Too with 540 as potentials - I simply did not realize the big bipes cruised so well with big engines and CS props.
I am presently in San Diego, with access to Montgomery, Gillespie, Brown, Pomonaand the surrounding area.
Happy to pay for gas to get a few in-person data points.
Specifically interested in radial powered Skybolts (M-14P) if any flying.
Thanks for any suggestions.
