[rebel-builders] Super Rebel Trike gear

Post by Bob Patterson » Sun Feb 19, 2012 6:23 pm

Hi Luther !

I changed the topic above to match your question.

There are Super Rebels flying happily with tricycle gear.
Here's a link to a video of a test flight ...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7dO_BvqRhe0

I've flown several Super Rebels, including a trike version,
and I can say that they all absolutely outperformed a C-182 !
It is a very pleasant flying aircraft, with great stability and
handling, with lots of room and cargo capacity, and great
visibility, even as a taildragger.

Given a choice, I'd far prefer a taildragger, for rough fields,
.... and the fact that I have flown taildraggers most of my life ! ;-)

You can convert from trike to taildragger .... fairly easily.

Do any of you know of any super rebel that successfully used the nose gear
package. I have been told that they did not perform well as say a 182 etc.
