Heeeeyyy my friend!!! Congrats it is a beautiful bird. I had one many years ago. The S-12 Airaile with 582 engine 2 strokes. Excellent brand from Randy.

Thank you , that was a long time ago .Last year I had problems with the engine ,it didn't die but it sputtered badly but smoozed out when reducing power . I got the carburetors and furl pump overhauled and will try it out soon again.

I still enjoy flying the little Rans once a while , Put some patches on the Fabric where the UV coating started to peel of it still flys like a dream .I cant tell you where the tires came from they where already on it when I bought it .You might get them @ aircraft spruce . Here is a link to pictures I made on a flight this march I think. Had changed the tires to skis. www.dropbox.com/sh/kjx9z56gszhz8ti/AABK9caaRK_jA9xUZ8oaNG6na?dl=0 Depending how long you are you might find it very tight at first . I took the seat cushion all out and replaced it with seatbelt straps I sewed over the frame . And you have to slide down to a more forward position . Im 5ft 11"

Nice little bird. Way too much time before take off. Edit out the slow time.

nice aircraft, that big ole 503 muffler is hilarious, it weighs 11 lbs, a four stroke can actually run without a muffler and not die like a 2 stroke will as it needs a exhaust chamber to even run

I just have to say that a two cycle engine will run fine with a straight pipe, very noisy though. They just won't make quite as much power as they could with a properly designed expansion chamber. Been there, done that.

Do you still have your S-4? If so how do you like it? and where did you get your oversized tires? Very nice plane,,,I am getting one in a couple of weeks and trying to learn all I can.

Is this an ultralight airpalne

@perno1957 5 ай бұрын

Yes its an Ultralight in Canada , I think in the States ,too. With the new regulations you could not fly it with an Ultralight license because it was registered as homebuilt and has an F as first letter in the Mark .The new law says to be able to fly a plane with your canadian Ultralight license it has to have a letter I in the front of the mark . But I have a private licence so it does not matter to me.
