    I read every word. I loved it. I just bought a model IV and will fly it solo for the first time this month. (God and my instructor willing) My instructor and good friend flew from Omaha to Deer Park Washington in it and I have never been happier.Thanks for sharing your story, I will look forward to writing one of my own someday.

    Question Re: Solo to Alaska

    Thanks so much for your hard work on this. I'm building a 5 and have been overwhelmed. I have new energy to start again from your thread. have tried to get local fox owners to give some time to me but most dont have time for poor pilots that can't afford a fast build. KEEP IN MIND; I WILL FINISH AND HELP ALL WHO ASK ME IN THE FUTURE

    I saw the reply, check the date to my original post. I have flown that plane more than 400 hours since I read the solo story. That in the past two years. Thanks to great people in the community and astonishing circumstances.

    I wish I could do this adventure, but you can’t be a SLSA Pilot and fly to Alaska. You have to have a Class III medical.

    I think the correct wording would be: you need to have a current medical to fly in Canada.
