Orientation ride (St Louis area)

Postby drbeiz0 » Mon Jun 16, 2014 1:38 pm

I am close to ordering a Sonex or Onex Kit (Trying to decide which one) but was hoping to get a ride in a Sonex first. I am in the St Louis (Belleville IL) area but I will travel as far as it takes to get a ride. My email is pltdbeezer@aol.com. I work nights in case I don't get back with you for a while. Thanks in advance.

Hi Dave,

In case you have time, there is builder-organized Sonex fly-in on June 28th in Bolingbrook, IL. I don't know how many aircraft are planning on showing up, but you might be able to hop a ride if any pilots are willing. It's also a good chance to meet some other builders and gain some first-hand knowledge. Below is a link to the Sonex Builders & Pilots Foundation calendar and events page. More info about the event is listed there.

Good luck!

I was planning to attend Bolingbrook but now it looks like I will have to work that day. I will keep an eye out for another Sonex fly in - Maybe Tennessee.

While you are waiting for a ride I put a detailed description below of what a ride in a Sonex feels like.
