I am looking for a good set of parasol plans that would be reasonably
easy to follow for a first time builder. I do not really care about
speed or cross country capability - just something to putz around the
pattern and sight-see. I am thinking that tube and fabric would be my
preferred materials (low cost and high strength), but I am open to any
suggestions. Single or double place is fine. Most of the people who
would go flying with me wouldn't do so in an open cockpit plane
anyways, so a second seat would usually sit empty :).
The two designs that have initially peeked my interest are the Pober
Pixie and the Starlet SA500. I have also looked at the Baby Ace. Anybody
have any opinions on these plans in regards to ease of construction for
a first timer?
Also I doubt I would have the space to complete the whole wing in one
piece, so extra points if the wing can be built in sections.
Thanks.
