The weight of parachute doesn’t count against weight limit of the aircraft.

Thanks bro :)

Thank you sir!

It was so cold it was unbelievable. I did make it to 10k feet a week or two later. It was July in Texas and I was wearing pants, parka, gloves, hat. The other dudes at the airport got a kick out of it. The part I left out is that I only had enough to climb up haha.

​@@dadmobile960 Noob question! What's the temperature at 10K and how that affects engine, aerodynamics at that height?

@@learndesignwithdev it was probably in the 40s-50s. The Kolb with the 447 had no problems climbing that high either. It feels pretty sketchy up that high though, it felt like I was above the horizon in my little plane.

You would have to call them directly if you wanted one new. They can be found used in good shape for 7kish

@@dadmobile960 it's pretty cool you can get up in the air for that price range. Are there any upgrades that could be done for a bigger fuel tank to travel further

@@a-carpenter9229 I always kept mine within the FAA Part 103 guidelines. As long as your buzzing around rural areas nobody will care.

When I called it in to the sherif’s deputy he said it’s not even the first time it’s happened in that area.

Wings are a big target i guess. I wonder how much fun it would be when the guy in the airplane started returning fire. 😁

Hangared at grass strip.

Some might say flying Ultralights isn’t a good idea either!
