Dang! This is cool! The Elio price is more within my reach, however.

Way back in ancient times, I wanted to build an osprey ii. Never did. Still have the plan set.

I remember seeing several Osprey builds at Oshkosh. You could probably do the Osprey for much less money, too!

That IS cool! Had my heart set on a Glass Goose a while back. VERY similar aircraft.

I'm looking at that nacelle in the photo... What does the Glass Goose have for power?

(I went to Oshkosh several times years back, but never did get out to the seaplane base. Too distracted with Staggerwing Beech's and other cool stuff...)

There have been several built with a variety of engines. The primary engine is the Lycoming O-320.

My toy of choice, that I didn't build, was the Dragonfly. At Task Research, we built about 50 kits. I am now helping with a Legal Eagle. Progress is slow due to lack of employee involvement.

I built a Dragonfly MK II back in the late '80s. I HATE working with fiber-trash. Unfortunately about the time I finished it, I bought my land with a 1500' runway. The Dragonfly is a great aircraft, but t is NOT a short field aircraft!

Kind of a strange looking bird isn't it.
