Great Video! I built a SuperStol XL with Billy in his builder assist program. 3 and a half months later I was flying it home! If you are looking for a Just Aircraft then look no further then Billy Payne.

Ha ha, yes it certainly was one of the best interviews I've seen! That's what I was eluding to in my other comment as well, but it probably didn't come across very well as Mark's. 👍

Mark you are a true believer and very kind. I owe most of the goodness of the video to Billy Payne. He was great to work with and very accomodating. It was a fun time for sure. Thank you for your support! Capt. "T"

Great, Great video. The info you provided was very informative. Would a used STOL aircraft be better for 1st time buyers or try and build one? The whole project would be a learning experience. Thanks, Danny Stockdaile USAF, Retired
@TangoSierra2022 Жыл бұрын
It depends on your background. If you are mechanical and have an interest in airplanes then building is a great way to know your airplane. If you are simply interested in flying and don't get a kick out of flying then just tackling the learning curve on flying may be enough for you. Either program, learning to fly or building an airplane of your own will likely take a couple years . . . unless you hook up with someone like Billy Payne at Plane Fun Aircraft who can assist you in building a Just aircraft and cut your build time substantially. When you weigh out the alternatives, Billy's assist program is pretty cheap.

Hey Capt. My name is Danny Stockdaile, Retired USAF, would like to know what is the least dollars it would cost me to get license to fly a STOL aircraft.
@TangoSierra2022 Жыл бұрын
I do not have an answer for you. Flight training programs vary widely. If you are interested in learning STOL techniques I would again say you should probably contact Billy Payne in NC. He does STOL specific training. This would allow you to become familiar with basic flying techniques and requirements as well as becoming familiar with taildragger and off field operations.
