G'day All, If y're into Aeronautical History, y'll probably enjoy a pair of clips, search '1975 Skycraft Scout' (the World's first Legal Minimum Aircraft)...; and 'V.J.-24w SUNFUN' (the World's first Ultralight Motorglider ). Strangely, the Scout managed to hijack the Clip-Illustration for the SUNFUN's Story, due to it's cameo-appearance in the middle of the clip ! & now, I must begin filming the story of Flight-Testing the 22Hp SUNFUN-Budgerigar... What fun ! Ciao.

@aeroplanemonthly G'day. Thankyou, VERY much for posting the clip! I'm a fan of old & primitive levitation ! My view is the more marginal it is & harder it is to fly, the MORE satisfying it is... Thus, the 8 Hp Pixie-Minor powered 1976 Skycraft Scout that solo'd me in 1978, was the Most-Satisfying thing I ever flew..! It's in Inverell T'sport Museum, nowadays. The wing I fly lately is a Faceted-Aerofoil, a WIG, unstalled by Ramscoops, & TE-Vents.Truly ! Search 'sunfoil'2C

I was at the airshow, but had to leave early 'cos of the kids, so I missed this plane. Thanks for putting up this video, Michael.
