Customer Testimonials
"It is an amazing biplane, very nice for aerobatics, and quite stable for a biplane."
"I really loved my Skybolt, but was operating an emergency room and putting in 100 hours a week, and had no time to fly. Now that I have been retired for 5 years, wish I had kept the biplane!
It is an amazing biplane, very nice for aerobatics, and quite stable for a biplane (biplanes are noted for instability.) I learned to fly 60 years ago in the Royal Canadian Air Force, on Fleet 16B bipes. Overseas in 1943 I transferred to the RAF and did ops in Scotland and Ireland on 3 types of Spitfires, Hurricanes, and the last of the RAF biplane fighters, the Gloster Gladiator. In mid January 1945 I made the last operational flight of an RAF fighter biplane, in Gladiator N5592, on a weather recce flight.
I have also flown a Tiger Moth and a Starduster. Just love biplanes! The 'Glad' was a wizard for aerobatics, with its 950hp Bristol and 4 flaps on the wings.
Enclsoed is a check for your brochure. Don't intend on building another (I'm almost 80!) but always said that if I ever did build another plane, it would be a Skybolt!
If you ever have a customer who wants a recommendation, give 'em my name and address. Have flown over 62 different planes, from Fleets to Wellington bombers, so I feel like I know airplanes!
Cheers!"
