Yes, am building the long wing version, part for better high altitude climb rate and part for LSA. Steamboat airport (and Steamboat Springs) is beautiful, attended a flyin thing there a few years ago.

We found ourselves settling in CO with the MSL altitude of 7k' and DA in the summer of 10k++ at ground level.... So, I've decided to find a new home for the yellow bird. She'd be out of her element here, unfortunately. Sorry about that...
You and me both Yuri, 10,000 ft DA on the runway on hot days (at KFLY in Colorado Springs for me). Why I am looking for a used 160 HP 320 for my Panther. Have tail and wings done, working fuse.

Welcome
