Gee that thing looked a lot like the M-18 Dromadair but the color shade is a little off. But yes I would fly it. I mean i've been co pilot in worse ie 1997 green Pontiac Sunfire, take off speed was about 110kmh hit the train tracks and had air under our a$$es for a few seconds the landing was a little rough. No matter how many times we tried we couldnt nail down the landings.

Hell not only would I fly it, I'd pay for a PPC on it.

So the schools should increase their fees?

aside from the humor, it is actually a sad story.
This fella is willing to risk his life and jail time,just to make and fly a "plane" so he can pay for school. Compared to what we have that is inspirational.
And belive me, having seen Kenya first hand, making anything that runs let alone fly, is a feat. These people are dirt poor, and have next to nothing. They clamor over what we would throw out. I appalude this man and his dreams. I wish I would have been there, I would have given him a hand.

Cheers.
