If you are not in too much of a hurry try to get to this;
LAA SYWELL RALLY 2011
2nd - 4th September
Sywell Aerodrome
Northants.
I have built an aircraft from a kit and have been operating it for some years so if I can help send me a PM. 1st thing to do is decide on a spec and a price range. Something like; (example only)
Min 120kn cruse
2 adults 4 hours of fuel + 40lb bags
Mogas at less than 20lph
Good STOL
Modern glass EFIS
Budget £55k
Or
Min 90kn cruse
2 adults 4 hours fuel + 40lb
Mogas at less than 22lph
Good STOL
Traditional basic VFR instruments/avionics
Budget £15k
Then we can give you a short list of likely candidates.
