Shawn,

You may want to drop a note to Gene Yarbrough. I believe he had a project going a few years back to recreate the Lazair design with the intent to sell kits. I'm not sure how far he got, but may have some research and drawings he's willing to share.

He was billing his project under the name of Piedmont Ultralights

Good luck...it would be awsome to have a Lazair sim on MS2004!

Thanks for the info John, I'll send Gene an e-mail. My only concern would be loading some actual blueprints and finding out that I was no where even close and having to start over I do have a question though, how do the flight controls on this aircraft work? From what I could tell the earlier models had different control inputs than the later models. On the Lazer III there are flight controls for yaw, pitch, and roll but I can't figure out how the elavator/rudder would be used to control pitch.

Just a quick video I uploaded to Yahoo video, showing the current progress with the Lazair. Lazair, float and wheels sorry about the quality...

holy crap is that awesome - when the view went into the seat and then looked up at the left motor, i totally knew you had it! ridiculously good job!

Thanks Tyler, I still have a fair bit of work to do but it's good to know I'm on the right track. If anyone's interested in doing some beta testing and could offer some feedback I would be happy to send you a copy of what I have so far. It would be nice to get some feedback from an actual Lazair owner who knows what the aircraft should look like.

Hi Shawn,
You can also google "Lazair" using "images" and lots of pictures will come up.
Great job so far! Daffy
