Great video & plane. Love the short use of multi camera shots (not over done, and shows landing nicely). I’ll be looking for more info on the GlaStar.

Those are cool airplanes. Your edits are wonderful. I really enjoy them.

Awesome GlaStar! Starks Twin Oaks is such a gem.

That's a great looking plane. Congrats and good luck!

Great showcase Amy, great explanation about the plane too. It's always nice when you're happy with what you've got. All the time you spent finding it was well worth it.

I can't thankyou enough for your videos .

Glastar prices jumped because you've been so happy with Woodstock.

Great video Quality 😎👍🏼

Humm, interesting plane that ticks a lot of boxes. Thanks for the video!

Great video. How much does this contraption cost? Thanks 🙏

Nice to see you at 7S3 maybe I'll see you sometime when I fly up to fuel.

Nice vid!

Go Amy

You have a sweet little yellow bird, I have a yellow Camaro so a yellow bird is not unreasonable. I have a bunch of questions I will watch your videos before I ask them but I like your plane may have to add one in with our Arrow.

She is cool..

I was curious as to an average price range for a use Glastar. Thanks for the video. You have a nice plane.

They tend to be priced between $60k and $120k depending on the build quality and equipment.

Could you build a Glastar two-seater like yours now, or have Glastar moved too far "up market"?

Did you stay in Colorado? Last I heard you were hangaring at EIK...

Maybe i could ask for longer wingspan for more fuel capacity to make 750miles to LF Wade Bermuda from KGED . Or its back to a Piper Cherokee .

Niiiice

We're about due for a new video Amy! Camping trip maybe?

@@cduemig1 Quite the opposite! Experimentals are great on maintenance and an A&P can work on them. They can even sign off the annual--no IA needed! They are also easy on the wallet for parts and upgrades.

@@amywhite375 thanks for the info! I posted in a Glasair group looking for someone in the Midwest with a Glastar. Be nice to ride in one before committing to building it!

So, what's that liquid coming off of your wing when taxiing at 1 minute, 40 seconds in the video? Is that fuel from the overflow (I hope not) or water from somewhere?

We left that on the video as something of an in joke. Glastars with the auxiliary tanks (near the wingtip) are somewhat notorious for venting fuel when the tanks are full and the pilot makes a slightly aggressive turn. There are numerous fixes for this, including a rerouting of the vent lines and a check valve for the aux tanks. But all Glastar owners have seen this at one time or another, and we all go "dang, that was too fast a turn with full tanks."

@@KitplanesMagazine Funny part is I was dropping into the comments to say "nice laminar flow" on the fuel coming out the vent. :D

AT MIN 1,30-1.40 WHAT IS THE LIQUID FROM THE TUBE? I SUPPOSE FUEL. cONFIRM?

Yes, fuel can port out of the vents when the aircraft is turned sharply on the ground.

Why do you think builders never figure in the time invested when selling their experimentals?

Because it's so hard to quantify and, besides, buyers tend to universally discount it. Or they have done. The rise in values today might reflect a slight change of heart... but it most reflects increased aircraft values across the spectrum.

Could you find a production plane at the same price point with everything you wanted? Could you go into detail?
