Featured Aircraft in SBPF newsletter

[Sonex1517]

Hi all

I am bumping this post up in the hopes of getting more participation for our newsletter.

Please consider this an open invitation for submissions.

In our May 2014 newsletter we began a new feature on member aircraft. We would like to continue this tradition in each newsletter.

I am asking owners, pilots, and builders to send me an email, with photos, to robbie@sonexfoundation.org and answer the following:



What is your Sonex's (Waiex/Onex/Xenos) Serial number

What gear configuration do you have? Any modifications to the stock setup?

When did you start building and when was the first flight?

What do you have installed? Please be specific - Engine, electronics, etc. A full list please

What modifications and customization did you do?

What else do you have planned for the airplane?

Where are you based?

What made you choose Sonex?

What did you find most challenging about this build?

What would you do differently looking back?

What advice could you offer to someone currently building a Sonex?

Do you have an online build log or web site?

What can you tell us about the first flight? How did it feel? Did anything surprise you bout the airplane?

How did you prepare for that first flight?

Now that you have flown the Sonex, does it match your expectations?

What goals do you have now? (Trips? Completing the 40 hours? Going to Oshkosh?)
