First flying machine



This is a picture of my first flying machine.
It is an Eagle Ultralight and could leave the
ground at about 20mph. I taught myself to fly
this machine which is not a good idea for most
folks. I had some flying time in a Cessna 150
a few years earlier so I proceeded slowly and
kept it safe although the first time it left
the ground was a surprise. I sold this plane
to a fellow who promptly crashed it on his first
flight. He didn't get hurt but the plane was
totaled. You need to know your limitations.
