Hello,

Great website and thanks for helping others experience the feeling of flight.

Hi John,

Great website, I am a private pilot, land & sea, with about 200 hours. Thinking about LSA for the last year or two and will come down to Georgetown for a visit in the next few weeks. would like to do a demo ride and see what they fly like. See you soon,

Jeff

Interested in your A/C as listed on ebay. What is the skin of the aircraft made of - looks like the wings are rag? What are some storage considerations if a hangar is not available? How long to install/uninstall the wings? Why would anyone purchase a two cycle engine for an aircraft? Aircraft like yours is the answer for general aviation fans.

Hi Robert,
The fabric is made by Dimension Polyants in Germany called Ultralam. X-Air makes a nice cover set for the plane for outdoor storage which I have in stock or the wings can be folded back or removed for transport in about 30 minutes. Of course the best option,if available reasonably, is hangar storage. Thanks, John

I wanted to thank you for 20th time for taking me up today. I hope to see you very soon.

Corey, introducing people like you to the joy of flight is what it's all about, absolutely my pleasure!
Good luck in your flying future, John

Quite a web site,,Very Good from an old Timmonsville boy!!!!

Hi John, I am just looking but the H seems to have what I am looking for, on paper at least. I may give you a call to get a few answers.

Hi there John, great site! Bought my kit from Phil Leroy in 2005. I love it. Standard Xair #661, 582, Powerfin F 72 inch. Excellent combination. Please go to www.theflightsforlife for some info on our flying benefits in an Xair, of course! Could sure use a dealer/sponsor for the flight from Bisbee Arizona to Ohskosh, Great advertising for Xair. Thanks. I/ll be ordering some spares. Kim Christian N349AZ

Glad to assist Kim, currently battling prostate cancer as we speak, just out of a prostatectomy.
Willing to donate $300 to your efforts for every new X-air sold through you, up to 5, $1,500 maximum. How's that?
John

John,

You sure know how to pull off a fantastic event. The fly-in last Saturday was tops! It's a shame Gene wasn't there but tell him his masterpiece BBQ was great as usual. Hope he gets to feeling better soon.

God speed on your upcoming event.

Cheers

Thanks for all your help in making it happen Dennis!

Would the Stingray owner consider a trade?
CHALET Arrowhead Trailer sleeps 4 1yr old.
I don't suppose it has folding wings.

What do you have with folding wings and amphibious floats?

Would you be interested in a trade. I won't be using the trailer if I get the plane.

What about flight training?

Paul
Hi Paul, I'll contact you this am, Monday, by phone. I got your phone message, thanks, John

Great site John- I look forward to meeting you soon. I'm training with Gator up in NC. Hopefully, soon I will be flying around MB in my GTE and will stop in to see you then. Will try to get him to go to Green sea next weekend.

do you offer financing on new Xairs and where are you located. Iv'e moved to Ohio in jan. i came from ca. and had been taking lessen out there and would like to continue with them but am unable to find anyone out here.

Hi Doug, here's a link...www.afreedomloan.com, I'm in Georgetown, SC. I'm not sure of instruction in your area, but check out www.aerosports.org instructor list. Thanks for your inquiry, call if you need further assistance. John

I moved to south carolina almost two years ago im 44 and always dreamed about flying an ultralight am I to old to start

Not by a long shot! Call me or come by for a visit. Thanks, John

Hello John,
Enjoyed our chat today on the phone and am looking forward to getting that Tennessee prop, as well as your help on fitting the Jab into the X-Air H.
Dennis

I just bought a 2005 x-air hanuman with a 582 rotax engine, it's used for teaching people to fly.

Question: what would it take to replace the 582 rotax with a 912 rotax engine?

807-472-6437

Cheers

Hi Mitz, It would of course take the 912 mount, which I have in stock, as well as some serious modifying of the cowl. Fiberglass experience is a plus here, hope this helps, John

Mitz

Very nice and informative site John,It was nice to see you, and doing so well.i am still looking for a plane,was thinking if i got one of yours,if i put it together would i be able to do the annual and maintenance ..

Yes, if you do it as a homebuilt or take the 2 day, 16 hr. repairman's course, you can do your own annuals.

John, It was great talking to you again after 6 years.I will be down to see you soon. Take care. Wayne

Thanks man, looking forward to seeing you soon!

Thanks John for the deal on the two BRS units I enjoyed the visit today and just wanted folks to know what nice aircraft you have for sale too.
Many safe flights to you this season!
Tommy Thompson

Thanks a lot Tommy! I really enjoyed meeting you and your brother and thanks for a smooth business transaction. What a pleasure to bo business with a REAL customer instead of "ebay" shoppers, lol.

I have surfed the web for nearly a year, educating myself about ultralights. I wanted to make sure I looked everywhere so that when I was ready to buy a plane I would make the best choice. Fellows you have an awesome sight compared to the rest. Get Your Name Out On The Web More Than You Have!!!!!

What a nice post, I know my web guy will love it, after all, he deserves it! By the way, we DO try harder, thanks, John

Been interested in UL flying for some time and you guys are close. May have to check your place out some time.

Hey Brian, good hearing from you. Come see us when you're ready, thanks, John

The fly-in turned out pretty good! Thanks John, Rick and Georgetown for letting us come down and add to the show! Looking foward to 2007 flying season!

I would like to take an ultralight flight during the Dec 9th fly-in and....JUMP OUT!!! Hey John, As long as things are going good with Chris, you can count on me being there this time. I'll bring the trike, parachute and whoever else wants to come along...Take care!!!

Great, come on down Gator, bring some buddies too! John

This is a really cool page. I will definitely be returning to check it out some more.

John,
I love this guestbook!!! I have to find out how to integrate this into our site.
Thanks, Phil

Thanks Phil, all the credit goes to my web guy. Only problem is all the junk posts and spam I continually delete. John

Bought a Flightstar 11 SC from John & got the Flight training from him. Excellent instructor. & a great encourager, great to work with, & a start of a great friendship. Thanks John!!

Wow, THANKS Harvey! You make all the blood, sweat, and tears of my job worth all the effort. Working and dealing with you has truly been a pleasure! John

great site

John it sure was a pleasure to finally meet you after all these gone by years, you are a cool person to hang out with.
I like your website, you did a good job with it, I'll post a good pic of my Fully restored "Rocket" 1984 Pioneer Formula-Fighter Flightstar as soon as possible.

Pleasure was all mine Jeff, please come back anytime! John

Hi! I'm a Flightstar & Kenworth driver in Northern NYS. Been flying since '96 when I became solo pilot and test pilot at the same moment after restoring my '82 single place. I hanger at a local farmer's place, but I mostly operate out of Boonville Airpark 1NK7. I fly to local airshows and ultralight events in the Mohawk Valley area with enroute refueling help from my ground support crew. If you come up this way you can find me at the Stittville AFB PPC event, or the Oneida County Airshow. On the road I'm up and down I-81 pulling a Nirvana Springwater trailer. Channel 3 or 19, Callsign/Handle is "Wingnut".

H E L L O....

Thanks for the strawberry shortcake. When can we come back for some more?

Hi John and all you "airheads"!
This is a GREAT website with many favorable links to valuable services. Especially the www.Skyvector.com airport directory. It's really going to help me cross reference some flight route plotting scenarios. Thanks a bunch!
