In November of 1997 I bought
"N86TX" and moved it to Hanger 115 in New Braunfels, Texas (My brothers 3
car garage). For the next four months he, with help from my cousin and my
father, did the remaining 30% of the work to get sailplane to a finished state and ready
for inspection. I called the FAA and they sent an inspector over. For four hours Mr.
John Irwin and I answered question on just about everything you could think of.
"Where is the engine? Where is the fuel tank? Where is the Nav
system? Where is the EGT? Where is the rubber band to launch
it?" Not really, he was nice and very professional and I appreciated every nut
and bolt he checked. I had only three items to correct and none were major.
The next day I got the certificate for "N86TX" Experimental Flying Wing
Sailplane!
NOW WE GO FLY! Did I say that?
