how much do these things cost?

[travisgriggs]

You've got to build them yourself. Bare bones build with the small engine, probably in the $30K range. With lots of instruments and the big engine, probably in the $70K range. All the money is in the engine and panel.

By golly that looks fun!

Does this field have a IATA code? It looks nice.

Nice vid! I've been looking at Airdrome Aeroplanes, Kitfox, but nothing comes close to the 701. Great plane, great vid, great fun- tomorrow, the next day, next day, next day...

woah what a approach I would want some of those treas cutting down

[cia212]

+1 on cutting down some more trees. A power failure on takeoff would be a disaster.

By the way, the plane looks fantastic.

Is it a base model, or did you add extras?

[travisgriggs]

It's got the Rotax 912S engine, which makes 100 horsepower. The standard 912 makes 80. Besides that, it's pretty basic. He was going for light weight and high power.

I want one of my own SO bad!!

They call it the sky jeep for good reason.

Todays' economy doesn't leave me with much hope, but I'll never ever stop trying.

[spitfireinvasion]

this is awesome... have your own runway? with your own plane? lol... ROXX!!

[stealhty1]

nice job ,however i may recomend you to cut off the remaining trees down the runway for godsake and your own safety, good luck

[Dubbsterdubb]

Rockin as usual.

btw, your fan club is screaming for a cover of Bright Eyes - First Day Of My Life.

Do it and I won't have to destroy you....
