Al ,was introduced to me by a friend of mine and we had
discussion over some electrical problems he was
having and whatnot. He is a friendly man and the conversation
went on to others things,, one of the being, Aeroplanes
You see Al Lives very close to Palm Beach County Park Airport (KLNA) just off the end of runway 27
so the conversation was interrupted several times because of the air traffic. Al told me about a plane he had built and asked if I would care to see it. ,wow , I said sure love to
(if you care to goggle it is between I-95 and Lake Osborne)
Al (on the right) and Bob (on the left) who was the pilot that took me up
Al sold it after giving up flying
Oh and Al’s dog :who thinks he’s ten foot tall and bullet proof:
Al built the plane , I asked him how long it took . He said Twenty Five Years mates
Mostly by himself…… See where the strut holds the top and bottom wing together?
The boot , or trim around the meeting of the two? ….Hand Laid in Place mates
It’s Beautiful
Well without further ado…
Read the Warning , and if you dare…… come onboard and take a ride
Caution Check your volume settings :
