Thanks!

Sweet that thing looks so clean. Honda engine + 1😄

Ok, I'm in, I think....

No Engine Start

what a cool airplane. thanks for that video !

Chris, you have a very exciting Part 103 foldable wing ultralight. I look forward to seeing you at AirVenture 2024. Keep up the great work. Best Regards, Wayne Whitley

Nice flying Alina,, j

Cost?

8 and 27,... lol She'll get it! Love this video, very cool. She has a lot of guts and determination to pull these flights off!. She's the only one I've seen so far at her age doing this so my hats off to her!. Great job Alina!. Here's an old one from me way back in 2010. czcams.com/video/x5MV0IbsplU/video.htmlsi=QdX9O9HPqOmHnI-Q This thing was like flying an 747 :)

I'd like to know TOTAL cost of the electric 103 AND how long it may fly 1/2 throttle on a charge. !

Way to go Alina i really enjoy watching both you & your dad yous make a great team together happy flying & stay safe

I met Alena and William Scott when she arrived at Sun & Fun. A very accomplished teen with great support from Dad (William). As a future Aerolite 103 builder - flyer I appreciated their suggestions on Aerolite operations.🛩

Not looking to be irregal!!!

Fantastic!

Air ready delivery time and distance? Does it fold or can one easily dismantle wings from frame for towing and storage?

Not hating... no helmet at least through those first low flying skip starts? Fantastic young lady no doubt. A huge congratulations 👏🏽👏🏽

Very proud, decent Papa and a true Patriot. Thank you, sir...

Very impressive and courageous

Will she be at OshKosh this year?

Dad, she has,, NERVES, OF,,,,, STEEL,, we are at home, ON THE,, EDGE OF OUR CHAIRS,, AND BLESS HER, SHE LOOKS SOOOO HAPPY UP THR, GOD BLESS YOU AL X

Wow your a, HERO, GOD BLESS YOU,

オッサンのヘルメットばかり.カメラの位置考えて

My gosh - such an impressive young lady!

❤ Ty for sharing the Vid . Great Job Alina . God Bless you all .

Does anyone else get even the slightest feeling that the teenager is being 'pushed' by her dad with the flying thing?

Looks like the windshield could use a little help!

She is a really good flyer. And looks beautyful.

Great kid ..

I'm absolutely impressed with your teaching methods, as well as Alina's patience in taking what you're instructing her to do and putting them to use. Awesome video all the way around. Good on both of you!!

Good job, by father and daughter ❤

I have watched a number of her videos. Fun to watch, just praying she is getting continued training. I have been. flying 20 years and 3500 hrs, i try every year to fly with a different CFI.

So inspirational. What a great video!

Great video. Alina is amazing... Nice her father was talking us through her journey.... I remember the mosquitos were huge in wiscoson when I worked there from the UK...

Is she flying back?

Maybe she should consider a full face helmet for better sound control. Or a face helmet that splits and can open part way, like for a motorcycle. Might protect her head from the wind a little better.

I was there! Maybe not. I wish...

great video, Wayne. you put a lot of effort and love into it. always interesting and a great pleasure to watch

Another great video! I would have preferred a few more camera angles, at least one looking forward, so we see what she sees. Greetings from Sweden!

Nicely put together. Particularly enjoyed the maps and voice-over. Edited a treat too. While the in flight footage is exemplary, you really see how fast she is flying when it's combined with additional land footage. Video worthy of her remarkable achievement! Really enjoyed the spicy landing splices. And her greasers/shadow chacing are fun too!! Greetings from the UK.

Another great film, many thanks. Just a tiny thought, would it be possible to either add another radio PPT or move it to the right-hand side to avoid the cross-hands routine. Best wishes

Wow, what a fun adventure for a very squared-away pilot, airplane and crew! Nice job!

Hello Mr. Carley and Mr. Whitley, I was thoroughly impressed by your CZcams video showcasing your ultralight airplane. Your creation holds significant promise for the future of aviation, offering accessibility to enthusiasts of all kinds. I would like to propose a suggestion to enhance your aircraft's performance further. By substituting aluminum tubing with carbon fiber tubing, you could potentially achieve weight savings of 35% to 40%. Not only is a composite frame lighter, but it also boasts superior strength. Importantly, this upgrade could significantly enhance pilot safety, particularly in scenarios where the aircraft makes contact with the ground at speeds below 70 miles per hour, which is common for ultralight planes, typically averaging speeds below 60 mph. The ultralight airplane now can incorporate carbon fiber composite technology inspired by F1 racing cars. In F1, the carbon fiber body has proven to safeguard pilots even amidst collisions at speeds up to 180 mph, ensuring their safety. Since the adoption of carbon fiber bodies in F1 racing, pilots no longer harbor concerns about safety during races. Similarly, I envision ultralight airplane pilots experiencing the same peace of mind in the event of ground contact while flying, given that the speeds of ultralight airplanes are considerably lower than those of F1 cars. It's worth noting that only carbon fiber composites can achieve this level of pilot protection. Neither aluminum nor steel can match the safety standards set by carbon fiber. The composite frames are also good for bikes. The cost implication of utilizing carbon fiber tubes is not exorbitant, with prices approximately 30% higher than aluminum tube frames. nathanvh9@gmail.com

Don't wanna be a Regal, afterall....

Thank you Wayne for another wonderful video.

Why don't you use always the A-R Sysrem, to have this camera so practical always available ?

That Challenger ll is the only way to fly. No better Ultralight than the Challenger ll.

Does she have a parachute?

Love the checklists.

You're going to go far in your life, young lady!

Thanks for sharing!
