 | There IS such a bird, the STOL King, and folks when I say King, I mean nothing else comes close. The STOL King is of conventional tube and fabric design, approximately the size of a Cub, with a full glass enclosure and a tall stance for very rough field operation. Slow flights of 16 mph can be achieved and stall speeds of 15 mph let you set this baby down in some of the most remote areas of the world. |
| There are three ways to fly your own STOL King: 1. You can buy the plans and build it from scratch. 2. You can buy your STOL King one sub-kit at a time. 3. The complete kit (saves you the most money). Comprehensive Info packs are $12.95! |
