The auction ends today for thse wheel skis. 202.53 now .
If you want Wheel skis these should be a good deal anything under 500 $
I am sure Lynn could attest to the costs plus time to make his own. by the Lynn how is your Skis ?
If I was to make a set like this I would not sell under 500$ Most Skis sell for $ 750 up for a Pair.
If you are considering Skis - this is a good deal for someone.

I'll file a report maybe later today as to the cost for the ones I
just built and just flew for the first time yesterday...not enough
snow here yet....I'm going in search of some today. But the initial
report is they work just fine for the 1 1/2-2" that I landed in
yesterday...7 landings at 4 different grass strips.
Lynn
p.s. Hell yeah, anything under $500 is a steal!

It was 9F yesterday at 3000' MSL, when I went out for a ski test
flight. I thought this would be the ideal day to see a "minus
something" on the OAT of my EIS, so up I went....4000'...10F.....
5000'...12F......6000'..15F....at that point I wasn't gonna see 0 or
anything close to it unless I went submarining, so I gave up on that
quest and went back to flying. : )
Today I go in search of snow....then football.

The last 3 or 4 times that I've tried to climb to lower temps, I have
run into a temp inversion...really strange to me. Is this normal? I
know about the 3 degrees F loss for each 1000' altitude, but lately I
haven't seen it...yesterday it was about the opposite.

those things you have to climb. Feels like leaning into a left

BTW freezing rain is a good indicator of a temperature inversion.

Yeah, I kinda figured that out today when it was 25 F and almost
raining. I got to thinking 'how can this be?' then I recalled
yesterday when it was warmer "up there" than "down here."
