Thanks lads vhpy

Having my own GT has been a dream for a long time (Ever since being pax with demon for 2.5 hours 3 years ago) and I am very excited about "The Wild Rover" - (The name just kinda stuck with my pops being an irishman and having heard the song so often growing up vhpy)

A tad bittersweet that I have to say goodbye to my beloved Blade "Red Special" but I have found her a worthy home with someone who will enjoy her as I have

This sport has changed my life and it is crazy to thing that this is my 6th plane - And I truly loved them all!! Have a feeling a will be sticking with this one for a while :)

Blue skies vhpy

Hi Vernon,

David will find that he probably has the best all-round trike on the market. (^^)

No tricks, no nuances and very sweet. !!!!

The QuikR on the other hand is a more advanced trike and has caught a few guys out.

Regards
John
