SHORT HISTORY OF AVID FLYER MK IV

Built by an aeronautical engineer, Alex Roth, who graduated in England, in Santa Cruz, Bolivia. I purchased and assisted in the construction of the airplane and flew in Santa Cruz for a good period of time and then flew it to the border of Brasil and Bolivia where the largest swamp in the world exist, Pantanal Mato Grosso do Sur. It is an area rich with fauna, piranha all you can imagine exist. Based on this environment I purchase lotus floats to be able to fly safely and experience the pantanal close up. If you go to the following link of Full Lotus Floats:
http://www.full-lotus.com/gallery/gallery.htm and go to AVID FLYER the second and third picture is the plane in Bolivia in the Brasilian swamp.

The plane was shipped to the United States in a container and has been kept in the garage. The engine tested every 4 to six months to insure all is working properly. New gas line installed for fuel system.

The wings can be folded back in about 10 minutes and ready the plane for towing or placing in the garage. All that is required is removal of a pin on the wing.
