Re: What sort of UL/LSA do I want?

I would talk to the people on the Light-S****t Aircraft yahoo group.

I doubt you will find very much with less than an 18ft span.
Cut the poles and put them on hinges so they can swing away to let the
aircraft in and out.
We have used this method on our pole barn hangars for over 20 years.


Have a good day and stay out of the trees!
         See ya on S****t Aircraft group
