I dream buying one of this beauty

[@shocktrooper8443]

I really like the looks of that H5! Am currently a Sonerai S2L pilot/owner, but really like this H5! Probably not as fast as the S2, but likely a bit more forgiving lander with a slower stall speed and easier to fly correctly, I would guess. There may be an H5 kit build project on the horizon for me! :-)

Thanks for the good interview with pretty good sound in the noisy environment (although you need an even longer shotgun microphone held just under the chin) but not for the reverse stereo.

[@Heather22056]

Good job 👌

[@ar15gator]

Congrats! 👍🏻

It's time for a tandem 2 seater

Look at the Thatcher CX-5. Ben can point you in the right direction, at www.thatcheraircraft.com/thatcher-cx5/

[@fractuss]

He was operating from an uncontrolled airport is my guess, if I recall you don’t need a radio to fly unless you’re in controlled air space

[@NowWeEats]

This gentleman said he went down to the airport to taxi around. How he was able to do this without the proper communication devices to be in contact with air traffic control?
Or do you even need permission to fly an ultralight?
I would like to buy a Hummel but I'm trying to understand when and where you are allowed to fly. Must you always 5ake off from an airport ?

[@BlueMax333]

wow! a shiny plane! Does it go fast?

[@gerald4027]

Yes,55 mph.
