Zigolo Motor Glider in Gas and Electric
The Zigolo motor glider is based on Michael
Sam’s design from 10 years ago in California.
They were free on the Internet. It was rendered
in a 3D Cad program and adapted to one of the
popular PPG engines. A very well engineered
and reliable two-stroke engine. And going one
step further, adapting electric power.
motors made for market motors are too small.
So to get the best possible performance and the
lowest price, we created our own fully integrated
motor controller, charger, battery system. These
are beyond first-generation off-the-shelf motors
and they work very well and they'll extremely
quiet.
Last year’s sample worked very really nice and
smooth. Electric powered is so much more pleasurable than I would've ever imagined.
The motor is theoretically capable of 75 hp for a
shorter period of time. We govern it to 25 hp to
do the take off and then throttled back
down to about 8 to 11 hp for maintaining flight.
It was much easier to avoid delays when you are
trying to get in that 45 minute flight. The quiet in
slow flight is so much more comfortable, smooth
and quiet. Comfortable because I know it's going
to keep running.
First-generation Electric power on the single
place was not only viable but very desirable for
the access to quiet, smooth flight or the
self launching to get thermals during the day.
So where to from here? Off-the-shelf electronic
components are not optimum electric
Cost will be about $20,000 price for a complete
kit including the electric motor, battery controller,
propeller and everything up which includes the
parachute. And, yes it meets true FAA Part 103
requirements.

Electrics are PossibleDon Lineback
Okay, what happened was that in the past 20
years I've been trying to design the best airplane
possible. I really wanted something electric and I
wanted to make electric work.
After searching, like many other people, there is
nothing to pick from. So I put all that on hold and
decided to design a motor.
We had the perfect battery and motor. They're
both just as important and then go back to the
airplane.
We can meet any configuration, using a prismatic battery system. The battery design has an oldfashioned cylindrical basic cell. The company
that produces the cells for us has never been
www.aerosports.org
able to cause a failure. The net inside the batteries is of the same chemistry. We took the
steel casing off because they made them for
non-weight sensitive applications. The steel was
replaced with carbon/Kevlar. That makes the
safest and lightest battery ever produced.
We had to have the most efficient motor. We
designed it to have two motors in one. That really increased our efficiency.
I didn’t want the builder to have to mess with the
electricity, finding parts, so the design is complete to provide everything from the key that
starts it to the smart charger that takes care of
the batteries and for the motor batteries everything ready to go.

Sun ‘n Fun:
To the best area of volunteers at Sun ‘n
Fun:
Well, I hope you have all had time to
decompress. We’re all back to normal life
again for another year. To sum it up, WE
DID IT!!! The loss of Dave will not fade in
our hearts, but because the show must go
on, we all stepped up and did what we all
know how to do, make Paradise City an
awesome place to be.
I thought that the week was going to
be very difficult and trying, but I learned very
quickly that with very little direction Paradise City
Volunteers know there jobs and how to do them.
While in my own learning curve with issues like
the showers and porta potty placements, pump
outs, vendor issues, I did my best to lead. It is
my sincerest hope that all volunteers know their
importance and value to our area.
I did not get to learn all that I want to
learn but that will come in time and allow me to
be more ahead of the game as opposed to
putting out fires. Every entity of Paradise City
was managed well by the directors and we, the
directors are only as good as all the volunteers
make us. We had high praise from the Sun ‘n
Fun Staff. We were highly praised publicly at the
Ground Loop Party on Sunday evening, in fact
“Lites” told everyone that Paradise City was his
new favorite place at Sun ‘n Fun. He mentioned
all the areas at Sun ‘n Fun but spent more time
on us than any other area. “GO TEAM!”
Both of the tributes we had for our volunteers past were a success and we will be building on that in the coming year. I had a blast participating in the parade on Sunday morning (We
should have won), and also getting more intimate with all the jobs you all do on the north
side of the runway.
We are preparing our debrief and I welcome all volunteers to send me your cheers and
www.aerosports.org
jeers as well as your suggestions to begin our
Plan for Improvement for 2016. No need to mention the showers, porta potties, and permanent
power for the headquarters and tower, they have
all been mentioned (that was a nice way to put
it) to the staff in detail. I also welcome all comments about the Directors and myself.
I hope that I have lived up to the leadership you expect and deserve. Special thanks to
all the Directors and volunteers. I am very proud,
honored, and humbled to be given the opportunity to lead such and incredible and diverse group
of people.
Let’s all keep in touch, cause that’s what families
do and until then:
May our lift exceed our weight,
Our thrust transcend our drag.

Merlin LSA Takes First Flight
April 9, 2015 ~ Glasair
Arlington, WA – After months of careful
preparation, Glasair Aviation’s new light sport
aircraft, Merlin, took its first flight through the
skies above Arlington Municipal Airport Tuesday,
April 7, 2015.
Following detailed validation testing, including
engine run-up, high-speed taxi, and ground roll lift
off, the team at Glasair stood back and watched as
Merlin departed the surface of runway 34 with
test-pilot Grant Smith at the controls. The flight
lasted fifty-seven minutes, as Smith took the plane
through a full test flight profile that included
validating the engine’s reliability, exploring flight
control characteristics in flight and conducting
standard flight maneuvers.

“While nothing can replace the sheer wonder of
witnessing the birth of a child, the introduction and
maiden flight of a new airplane design is a close
second!” Glasair Development Manager Ted
Setzer said. “The ‘parents’ were all there to witness
it, including the Glasair Aviation’s flight designer

Darrell Porter and the Folder D7
Hi I'm here with Darrell Porter looking at this
beautiful 1918 Folker D7. I want to let Darrell talk a
little about the plane and its hand built guns..
The Folker D7 was build about 2 1/2 years ago
and has 130 hours. I fly on a regular basis. It's an
aerodrome ship out of Holden, Missouri
I presently reside in Harrison Ville, Missouri. I
built this one for airshows, a replacement airplane for
my bigger one and I'm presently involved in making
gas replica guns for the Aerodrome company. It's just
a hobby for me and I love putting them on the
ultralights guys with the light sport culture.
I say these are bargains for the movies and just
enjoy flying around making noise. These are

They make a lot of noise for reenactments and in the
movies.
We perform at the all major shows here in the
United States. This is the hundredth anniversary of
the Air War of WW I. We went to Dayton Ohio for
the hundredth year reunion for these aircraft. There
were over 20 vantage reproduction replicas at the air
show.
We also plan to perform at the World War I
reenactment in Newville, Pennsylvania. It's on the
website under World War I reenactments.

Goose Encounter
It was obvious that the geese were aware of my
approach as I could clearly see them looking over
their shoulders at me as I approached. They didn't
seem too alarmed though, and just continued to fly
along in formation. I slowly dropped into the right
echelon slot and drew to within 5 yards of the flock.
How incredible! I was so close, I could see the
slipstream rippling their feathers. I could see their
eyes as they glanced back at me. We were directly
over the lake now, and the rippled blue water in the
background would make the perfect setting for a
photo of the geese in flight. I sandwiched my control
stick between my knees and started to reach for my
camera that was hanging from a strap around my
neck...
(And tales of aerial-animal encounters from the hood)
- Originally published in Ultralight & Light-Sport
Flying! Magazine, 1999
By Dennis Demeter
It was a beautiful July morning in 1980. I was flying
my Maxair Hummer over Michigan's Lake Fenton, the
area where I grew up as a kid. My Mom & Dad's
house was at the south end of the lake and I had just
finished doing some lazy circles around the
homestead at an altitude of about 1800 feet AGL. I
turned back to the north and noticed a westbound
flock of Canada Geese flying in their typical “V”
formation approaching me from the east. Assuming
that geese were likely unfamiliar with standard
navigational principles, I decided to yield to the flock
and turn slightly so as to allow
them the right-of-way to pass in
front of me.
Just then, the “Tail-End-Charlie” goose that was
closest to me, looked back at me one more time and
then tucked his wings in and tumbled downward out
of the formation! “Oh my God!!” I exclaimed. Did I
just give that poor animal a
coronary? Did he have a heart
attack and croak right in front of
me? I chopped the power and
started a spiraling descending
turn to follow the stricken goose
down. His tumbling earthward
plummet easily outpaced my
aircraft's ability to keep up without
over stressing it, but I held the
Hummer into a tight descending
turn in an effort to keep the goose
in sight, fully expecting to see him
splash into the glittering surface
of the lake below.
As they drew near, I thought this
would be a neat opportunity to
get some air-to-air shots of these
majestic animals in flight. I had
my camera around my neck,
cocked, locked and ready to go. I
also was thinking about the fact
that a local Audubon society
chapter had befriended my mom
and had been coming out on
occasion to sit in the grass of our
front yard near the lake shore to observe the geese
that would congregate there on a daily basis. I bet
they would get a kick out of some neat air to air
photos!
Just as he got to about tree-top altitude, I saw the
goose spread his wings, arrest his crashing tumble
and recover back into controlled flight. He quickly reoriented himself and again assumed his original
course, albeit at a lower altitude.
I waited for the flock to pass in front of me, and then
started a left turn to drop in behind the flock.
Hopefully, my presence would not alarm them so
badly as to cause them to break formation and
scatter. This would not only destroy my chances of
getting the shot I wanted, but ran the risk of placing
me at risk of a mid-air collision with an avian creature
that can weigh as much as 30 pounds! It turns out
that the Hummer I was flying cruised at just about the
same speed as a flock of geese, so as I dropped in
behind them, I closed the distance between me and
the flock slowly. As I approached, I adjusted my
approach path to assume a right echelon trailing
position in the formation. Hopefully, if I was lucky, the
geese would act as if I was just another goose joining
the gaggle, and not break up the formation.
“What did I just see here?” I wondered, astonished.
Was I just duped? This big fella just played “Shot
Duck”! (The avian version of “Playin' Possum”) Did
he do this in an effort to draw me away from the
flock? If that was the plan, it WORKED! There was
no chance of me climbing back up and catching the
flock for another photo attempt, so I broke off the
pursuit and meandered my way back to the airport,
thinking about the behavior I had just witnessed.
Was this just a random selfless act that a quick
thinking hero goose had engaged me in to save his
comrades, or was this something done by instinct?

Goose Encounter - Continued
Cool. Puzzling, but cool, nonetheless.
An hour later I stopped by my Mom and Dad's house
on the lake, and as luck would have it, there were
three elderly ladies from the Audubon Society sitting
with my mom on lawn chairs in the shade of our huge
old Oak tree near the shoreline. My mother poured
me a glass of tea, and I sat down in the grass next to
the “Bird Ladies” in our front yard. I started telling
them my story about my flight earlier that afternoon.
As my tale unfolded, I watched as an astonished
expression formed on the their faces. Grace and
Louise looked at each other wide eyed and started
babbling at each other in breathless excitement.
Grace asked if I could stick around for a while, and
when I said I could, she asked to use our phone so
she could go call her friend who was a professor of
zoology at the University of Michigan. Thirty minutes
later we were joined by a distinguished looking older
gentleman wearing a tweed sport coat with the typical
college academic patches on the elbows...
Once again, I recounted the details of my sortie, as
“Professor Tweety” furiously scratched notes down in
his spiral notebook. The good professor looked at the
ladies, who were sitting in their lawn chairs, leaning
forward, hanging on every word... “To my knowledge,”
said the professor, “This behavior has never been
documented in Canada Geese before.” He asked me
if I could try to duplicate the encounter on another
flight in the future, and to document my observations
as best as I could with notes and photos if possible.
The prof theorized that this was an ancient, latent
instinct that could not be documented until such time
as the invention of an aircraft which was capable of
flying at the same speeds as the geese. The old man
continued to explain, saying that the Canada Goose
has not evolved a whole lot since the days when
dinosaurs roamed the Earth. Back then, they had
airborne predators like the Pterodactyl preying on
them. Over the last few thousand years however,
Canada Geese have had no actual flying predators,
and until now, have had no inclination to show this
behavior to us. This report, if verified by duplicating it
in another flight under similar circumstances would be
a significant addition to science's understanding of
not only this particular breed of avian creature, but
may even add to scientific discussions about the
nature of instinctive behavior.
One week later, I was over another lake when I saw
another flight of geese flying in formation. Again, I
maneuvered around to drop into the formation with
the geese. Once again, as I drew to within about 5
yards, “Tail-End-Charlie” tumbled out of formation and
plummeted toward the Earth. This time, rather than
follow him down, I stayed in position and continued to
follow the group. After about 30 seconds, a second
goose tumbled out of formation. I looked below me
and watched as the two geese joined up with each
other and started flying to rejoin the group. Eventually,
I think the group realized that my intent was not to
attack them, and no other geese attempted their
decoy maneuver. I did try to take some pictures, but
the geese were pretty much lost in the background
clutter. I had the roll developed (This is before digital
cameras, kiddies) and gave the whole pack to
professor Tweety. I am told that This phenomenon
has been noted in recent years by other ultralight
pilots that get too close to migrating Canada Geese.
A disclaimer is in order here. I DO NOT recommend
that anyone fly in close proximity to migratory birds.
First, these animals are by and large protected, and
your flying close to them could be considered an act
of harassment, and could bring the state Department
of Natural Resources down on you. Second, You do
run the risk of a mid-air collision. If a couple geese
can put Chesley Sullenberger's Airbus into the
Potomac River, they sure as heck can bring a light
aircraft down. Third, it's not nice to mess with Mother
Nature, so please give migratory birds a wide berth
when you encounter them during a sortie.
Stories of bird encounters abound in aviation, and
ultralight aviation adds a new twist to these
encounters. A fellow in our flying club brought his
wounded Chinook into our field and together, we
surveyed the holes in the Dacron on top of his wing.
He told us that he was trying to share a thermal with a
Red-Tailed Hawk, and the Hawk got a bit territorial on
him. It dove from above him, bouncing off the wing,
twice!
It is a good idea to circumnavigate flocks of soaring
seagulls. Don't assume that they will always get out of
your way as you approach. Last summer I had a midair with a Tern. It passed through the prop of my
Phantom, got sliced and diced, and then was
deposited all over my windshield and me! Luckily, my
wooden GSC prop was not damaged.
Another animal to watch out for is deer. NEVER
assume that a deer standing alongside the runway as
you approach for landing will do the logical thing and
run off and away from you. Do a fly-by and go around,
and watch where it goes off to after it saunters off into
the brush. A fellow I know flying a C-150 into his

private strip saw the deer standing next to his runway.
He assumed the deer would run off and away as he
approached. What it did do was to run directly in front
of him. The deer went through the prop, through the
windshield, and landed in his lap. The impact broke
his nose and the deer, still alive--- writhed wildly
inside the airplane. It's hoof caught the pilot in the
corner of his mouth and basically de-gloved the side
of his skull. Paul wears a full beard today to hide the
scar that runs from his mouth to his ear lobe.
Two summers ago, I was taking off from my strip and
noticed what appeared to be a cloud floating across
the soybean field next to our runway. The cloud
passed in front of me as I was in the midst of my
take-off run. Split seconds later my entire windshield
was covered in bug goo. I felt the prop load up and
the engine lost a little power as the air filter loaded up
with bugs! The “cloud” was a migrating horde of
termites! I could see NOTHING through my
windshield, and rather than risk re-engaging the
swarm during a landing attempt back at my field, I
flew a few miles to my buddy's place to clean up the
mess.
