Kevin Frank is building a modified Wheeler Express, an all-composite four seater. What sets this airplane apart is that, for a four-seater, it is small, sleek, fast, and relatively inexpensive. Its claim to fame is an unusual rear seat configuration where one passenger faces forward while the other faces aft. Ken Wheeler designed this airplane as a family recreational craft that could get four adult-sized people, with skis, to the mountains fast. Well, that unusual rear seat configuration comes to the rescue again.
Space is left between the rear seats to allow skis to stick out of the rear baggage compartment.
Ken has thought of everything. Keep at it Kevin, and we'll all cheer for you on your first test flight.
