            A wrap-around windshield of Lexan makes 
            for excellent visibility and comfortable flying. Optional windows 
            are removable for open-air flying in the summer. Wood was chosen as 
            the basic building material. It is easy to work with, dependable in 
            its strength characteristics, and is not bothered by the vibrations 
            associated with 2-cycle engines.
 Construction techniques are of the old-fashioned, tried and true 
            wood truss and plywood gusset method. It is very simple, and builds 
            quickly.
