Would love to test fly a Sonex in the bay area

[gregsonex]

I'm interested in purchasing a Sonex. I haven't flown in one so would at minimum like to sit in one if not fly around for a short amount of time. I normally fly out of KPAO or KSQL but I could also come to a different airport if that's more convenient. I'm also planning to attend Oshkosh this year so if that's better we can do that as well. I'm a new pilot so looking to build cross country time, fly locally , and eventually do some IFR training.

I would not recommend a sonex to someone wanting to build XC time and learn IFR skills. It's a fun plane but not well suited for how you describe your mission. A C172 or C182 (if you can afford it) would be a better bang for your buck because you could possibly sell it for the purchase price and buy something else after building time and ratings. That's my opinion, anyways.

Come sit in mine at San Rafael, see my Private Message.

It's a great cross country airplane. Or a good one, at least. It's the wrong airplane for IFR training.
