Watch "5 Vintage Ultralights You¡¯ve Never Heard Of" on YouTube
I found this video interesting if you ponder ultralights. I like the idea of being small, affordable and for fun flying. You know like a bird. I do have drawings/plans for a Mitchell Wing B10 if anybody feels frisky. How about a Dingo?? Enjoy
