    Hey Ken - I just loaded up a couple more.

    Hi Heather, Did you only fly the Skypper or did you get to fly the Tanarg as well?

  • Heather

    YFT - I've flown six of those trikes (two in the backseat). At the time, we were joking that there I was with all my trikes. :) If only... I did get to fly a Skypper at the factory in France last year - soloed in it. Loved it.

    hi heather very nice picture  i wish we would of got a shot like that of everyone at the polson fly in. 14 trikes and 19 pilots    so do you fly with kim hurt in petaluma great guy hope to fly with him again someday. we flew together at the first elk river fly in. i  love seeing all those tanargs and skypers  what a great machine. i flew yfts tanarg in oz and just fell in love with its comfort and easy handling and high tech construction.air creation has some really smart stuff going on. my next big trip france and over to see jozinko it will take me some time to save enough moola.  cheers

    White Eagle - give it a try next fly-in! If nothing else, it's quite a scene to watch lots of independent-minded pilots arrange that many trikes. ;) Yes, I do fly with Kim - he's the person in the red hat. He gets a lot of use out of his beautiful Skypper - flies almost every day. I'm with you about the Tanarg. I did almost all of my training with it (Bionix 13 wing). The back seat is remarkably comfortable. No squishing, no mast hitting the back of your head, very little wind buffeting. Hope you get to France soon! If you can, try to go in September and visit Coupe Icare http://www.coupe-icare.org So much fun.
