sez Harry "At this point the structure is so light I can pick it up and carry it sideways into the garage at night. Be sure to attach weights if you leave it unattended so it doesn't get blown away by any breezes!"

The LC Kawasaki has a single Mikuni 32mm carb, tuned exhaust with a Yoshimura carbon fiber muffler, and a J'bird 3:1 belt reduction to swing the 60 x 30 Tennessee prop.

Right side of the engine showing the carb and oil injection tank. As shown the plane weighs in at 236 lbs. making it well with-in the Part 103 limit of 254 lbs.

Completed in the sumer of 2000 after 830 hours of construction (and several sit and think sessions!) About 12 lbs of weight was saved by using riveted gussets instead of bolted angles. The tail feathers use more of a Moth outline rather than the "barn doors" shown on the plans.

Long shot shows Harry's hangar (also known as "Harry's Phool Parlour") with his GL Nieuport (1992) and Ultra-Piet (1996)
