I have spent a lot of time in Colorado and I have lived in Bozeman MT twice - I love the mountains and I plan to fly the 750 out there when it is completed.  Look up aviatorsbydesign.com and you will see more about what I am doing and why I have kids building the airplane.  As a child, I spent many trips to Palmer Lake and we used to go to the Flying W ranch and it was tough to hear that it was burnt to the ground on Tuesday.  I moved my family to Bozeman the first time when the fires raged in Yellowstone so I know what you are going through - take no chances, get that bird out of harms way!!

Been feeling a little blue about my 750 build recently but that was a great reminder of the fun I can have with mine when it is done. Great video.

That is one of the places I am wanting to fly into after I get my 701 built. Right now I am limited on working as I am in the pre-evac stage area and have packed up a few of my tools, in case I get a mandatory evac command.

Where are you located?

West of Colorado Springs, near the Woodland Park area.

Awesome Video! Just what the 701 was meant to do!

Nice video.  Fabulous country for 701 flying.

Awesome!!  Are you coming to AirVenture?!?!  I will be having kids building a CH 750 in the Home Builders hangar and would love to have you stop by.  That goes for anyone who is a Zenith or potential builder to stop by.
