Nice shot. I don't recognise the aircraft.

From the look of that snow it won't be Spring for a while yet. They fly in open cockpits all year round over here. :P

Thanks, Doug. I had to Google the registration to identify it, myself. It's an Orloff-Geist Spezial DAL-1. From the front view, it looks like a Pawnee and a Cub's love child.

Regarding the snow, there was about two feet of the stuff kicking around a few days ago. It's been warm and sunny since, and the trend will (hopefully) continue for a while. :)

Maybe the 'experimental' is actually about testing the weather to see if it is suitable to fly in  ;D

Nice shot though  8-)
