You should!

Believe me, this is probably one of if not the best free microlights at the moment.  I really enjoy flying this one.

And, I have a feeling that Byron plans on making many more in the future.

Oh, I found out today that when you start up the engine, you hear a guy yell "contact"

That and cranks the engine twice before it turns over!

This could have been Payware!  Thank you Byron Warwick!
