Hi Bud,
I am still willing to check out qualified pilots ( current and ideally
with tail-dragger time) in my Europa Mono here at Pemberton, B.C.,
CYPS. We are located 2 hrs drive North of Vancouver on Highway 99 and
have excellent lodgings near our airport. Our run-way is 4000' long and
100' wide, with no run-way lights to worry about. I have had three
pilots from Washington State up here in the past. This would be of
interest to pilots from the North West.
Peter Timm, Monowheel # 110, 912 S, Airmaster, 410 hrs.

Bud,
I may have one here in North Texas. Gary Platner is an ex-Navy,
ex-airline, flight instructor with over 20,000 hrs in everything from
cubs to the 737s. He's an excellent pilot and instructor. He did my
checkout in the monowheel. If you like, I will ask him about it when I
get back home at the end of the month.

>Gentlemen,
Do we have any qualified instructors for mono wheel insurance
checkouts in your area.
As our monowheel owners eventually find, if they wish to sell their
aircraft, finding a good instructor locally can be a challenge.
Here on the East Coast I too no longer have a stable of qualified
instructors. I'm afraid, in today's litigious society some insurers now
require complex aircraft checkouts as a condition for insurance or they
will not insure loss in motion.
If you know of anyone still willing to fly checkouts in the mono,
please email me so I may begin a list.
