Delivered to the front door today was my Oratex UL600 order from Germany. I can highly recommend the company to deal with. The fabric is pre-coloured so there is absolutely no need to UV protect or paint or sand and then paint and then sand...and on it goes. UL600 fabric is light weight too with Cub builders using it claiming weight savings of 30lbs so any weight savings has to be of benefit when building an 'Ultralight' Legal Eagle. The other thing is that it is going to save me a lot of time and this gets me flying sooner. Don't get me wrong, I am enjoying the build process but I am bursting at the seams to go flying and exploring!
My color of choice is Antique White which has been inspired by this Zlinaero Savage Bobber. http://www.zlinaero.com/prodotti.php?id=6&lang=2
hmmm...how about some lightweight tundra tyres on the LE?
