Many different kinds of aircraft, including 16 trikes flew into the event. We explored many interesting places around the airport. Many thanks to Steve Bass (he is also a trike pilot) for his great work as the president of Copperstate Fly-in.
Crosswind and turbulence.
Heňo is no longer a student of Rogallo Team. Today he successfully passed the final examination and he became the trike PILOT.
Video of our recent trip to Burketown to fly the morning glory cloud. We believe that Tracey is the first female trike pilot to fly the glory cloud. enjoy!
Now this looks to be a very simple system. The pilot is still working on the development. Probably not a huge amount of thrust or extended time at high power but maybe a nice way to get up to supplement some natural ridge lift or thermal lift. Pretty cool.
Flying the ZA Hornet 582 trike in 1990 at Newcastle. Pilot Chris Brandon with Fredrick Hogarth (RIP) from the UK. The beginning of trikes becoming legal in Australia.
I flew to Nitra airport for trike instructor and his student and made him a final theoretical and practical exam for pilot licence. BTW new Apollo TL wing was really horribly in thermal weather... Next we all - 4 trikes - flew to Prusy airport for a goulash party.
Private Pilot Night Training in an Air Creation Tanarg trike flying down to Los Angeles then over the city at night with Matt Liknaitzky.
A lot of preparation and study went into this, but when all was said and done ...as Matt said, "That was Awesome! Too much Fun!"
