SKY HARBOR (Continued from page 1) Wilmer McGregor, a transplanted Goderich enthusiast now living at' Mount Hope, a Hamilton. suburb, used his kitchen table in building the wings of his plane. The McGregors started the job while in Goderich and later moved the .plane component by component to the Hamilton area by car. It is now almost ready for covering. The tubular frame is being'built up with the help of an experienced welder at Goderich. The same welder (George Mor- ley) is -helping others at Goderich, including Gus 'Chisholm, who is nearing edmpletion on a high -wing monoplane adapted from the proven Corbun •Baby Ace. Mr. Chisholm has already been assigned regisiration letters for his project. "They're going to look pretty good on this aeroplane," he points out. "It isn't every owner , who has a registration to match bis own initials . . . CF RAC. My full name is Robert Angus Chisholm." He expects the Baby Ace to cost him about $700, including the price of the 95 hp engine he picked up second hand. Another ,Goderich builder is Clarence Love, who has been work- ing on the wing ribs for a two - place French Jodel. While the ultra -light flame burins brightest in the Goderich-Hamilton area, the spark is being kindled in other parts of the country as well. Won National Award Fanning the enthusiasm is the untiring effort be:ng continued by Mr. Hopkinson, whose interest in home-builts and private flying gen- erally last year won him the first Canadian - Owners and Pilots As- sociatic n annual award. Why build your own plane? "It's a sense of accomplishment," floppy explains. "What further 'flying achievement than to take to the air in a plane you built yourself? You know every single piece of the machine intimately." Hoppy's radio -equipped Little Halsey is a familiar sight around eastern airports as he moves about the country at between 130-150 miles an hour. How do these machines stack up in the air? - Gus Chisholm says, "In these little planes, you're sitting right on the centre of gravity. There- fore, no trimming is necessary. They 1fy like a dream." Who's got bhe hammer rand nails? The rich miss one of life's big thrills: paying the final installment.
