Hello everybody, I'm Dave. I don't fly yet, so I figured an ultralight would be the way to get started.

I was considering LSA planes when I stumbled onto the Legal Eagle Ultralight. It's really got my attention, mostly for the simplicity, and partially because it's an ultralight. It's cheap and uses a 1/2 VW engine. The Legal Eagle designer also uses the "better half" system, so I won't actually need to cut the engine block.

Here is the link.

Has anyone else heard of/built/currently own one of these?

Also, are there many members from Ohio here? It would be a big help to actually meet people who could give me advice, and teach me about the characteristics of airplanes.
