That Shadow really looks cool Mark!

I really like the Tandem seating on these planes...I also like that the vertical stabiliser points down. I suppose its more effective with the pusher prop?

Really nice pics Rudi! (^^)

Hi Rudi – thanks for the photo’s – some awesome shots on the on the disk you gave me (^^) (^^) . will bring your video through to rhino on Sat.

Hi Paul – I unfortunately don’t own her anymore :( :( , ---- but if you find another shadow I will gladly teach you to fly it. Anyway I’m really looking forward to doing the tail dragger thing and if all goes well will fly up to your camp soon 8) 8) .

Hey Bundi thanks – brilliant lay out, just a pity that the rear seat is so cramped, but no problem for a small person. And yes inverted stabilizer for ground/low speed maneuvering (front caster wheel) thrust from prop would miss if facing up. Very surprising that this design has not been copied and tweaked up a bit.
