Hi Kitfoxflyer, Was camping with my Scouts at the camp at the south end of Pinery Provincial Park and saw a white & red amphib and a blue Beaver on FL's fly over on Sunday morning. I figured it might have been you. Rotax fliers...check those carb sockets!!!

you wanna see rough fly down to dayton ohio in a beech 1900, we also had winds gusting to 25 knots but we could feel the nose wheel getting tossed around

Silly question, when you fly a plane such as this do you need to file like a flightplan or are you just allowed to take off and land whenever you want?
