I enjoyed your presentation Mauricio from a historical perspective….I can very much relate to flying alone in remote areas….A very pleasant experience….Your high altitude flight with the EZ Bee causes me to want to go fly!!

I enjoyed reading your thread Mauricio, it allowed me to fly my EZ Bee virtually through your experience.

Thanks Bob!!
Bob, friend, you know that I appreciate you very much, so I want to ask you a favor, promise me that you will assemble - assemble your EZ-Bee, please take some time and assemble it, I am sure that you will enjoy the outdoors and everything that that project will generate in you ....if your son accompanies you, even better.

Look, I found this video, it has all the ingredients of those who start without knowing much, they are driven by enthusiasm and funny enough there are many mistakes when making it fly, hahaha, but it is very fun....I tried to contact the author of the video, but I don't have an answer yet, just to thank you for publishing that beautiful memory. Here is the video I'm talking about:

(I don't understand what they are talking about and the video does not allow translation subtitles, but everything seems like a party!!!...if someone wants to translate the lady speaking that would be great!!!...thank you!)

Friend, what a nice message... flying in remote places is incredible, a special magic... in those places I connect with God, with nature and I am grateful to look around to be alive, I thank the universe for having the opportunity to exist and enjoy . This is life...at the same time, a spiritual connection with friends like you, who in other latitudes are on the same frequency as me...as I said before, I can't explain it. In any other way, I'm just grateful to be able to enjoy all of this and you!

Parts made with 3D printing.
Replacement of the original parts, which are at the end of their useful life, as they are fine for static use, but in action, they run the risk of cracking and deteriorating further, becoming useless forever.
My friend Néstor has done a perfect, impeccable job making the replacement parts.
My sincere thanks for his valuable work and his friendship as always.

The lady should have stayed in the house... Laughing

Let's just say; she wasn't the most supportive person in attendance..

Mauricio!, Your friend did a great job making the nose-cowling for the EZ Bee…. It seems to be a complex shape to do in the drawing software but he made it perfect….. Also, Very nice flights on the vintage Cox airplane….. Looks like a very pleasant flyer Very Happy
