Dear C, Bill and I have been in touch ever since I did that first movie. He is part of a fine Christian Quartet. They are talking about having a Fly-In at his house this Summer and I will do my best to make it there. It will be quite a cross country for me if I can do it.

Are you still flying your weedhopper in Mounds I just got my first weed Hopper from my dad he never flew it bought it been stored in the house would like to know more about it if you are flying still
Dear Mr. Less, You are actually communicating with the guy that made the movie. Bill Chilcoat is the flyer. Last email I got from him indicated he is still in Mounds. Whether he is flying the Hopper lately, I don't know. You'll have to contact him directly. Blue Skies & Tailwinds!™ Brian FitzGerald - The Sky Surfer

Good information, is a gentle airplane
A brave pilot to fly this plane. 5/16/2021
It is a very light aircraft. You need to keep it within its boundaries and everything will be just fine.

Duke Prichard was my Weedhopper instructor.
Sad to see Light sport movement destroyed UL flying and greatly shrank the amount of flyers and safety of us who do fly.
I agree totally and have spoken out on this issue many times...
How so?
@@BrianFitzGerald-TheSkySurfer Could you point to a specific video/s, or was it done in a different forum?
Also forgot to mention I'm just in Claremore Oklahoma
I have a Mdl B 447 with one large seat ( ; ) I'd love to fly it . Never have . I live in Seneca SC .
I just bought an ultralight to restore this December.... I'm in Augusta, GA. My dad is from Royston, GA up that area...
