The 1929 Flying and Glider Manual has plans & construction articles for the Heath Super Parasol. It's available from the EAA Gift shop for $6.95...
Matthew,
Check out "Copyright free aircraft plans" at yahoo-groups. They have plans for all sorts of aircraft. Some are complete, others are not. And all are free.

Would somebody please help this man... before he hurts himself?

I mean, if he's THAT determined....
Definitely NOT an ultralight. And probably way over priced. No thanks.
Wikipedia has a listing for the Aerotique Parasol, with a few photos; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerotique_Parasol
"There is no bar b q that is close to what is commonly available in Texas, and no seafood such as one finds all along the Gulf coast or eastern shore."
That's 'cause we're Wisconsin. We're quite a...
19 years? Trust me, you won't recognize the place. There have been a ton... no, make that 2, maybe 2 & 1/2, tons of changes in the last 20 years. That's not to say it's better, or worse. That depends...
Dave,
I just sent you a PM. Let me know if you don't receive it.
I have a listing of several shops in the upper Midwest. Can't promise any of them can do what you need. but you can call them...
Well all I know is...
If EAA goes one more year without booking the Moody Blues, as the opening act, there are a number of middle aged women who are going to have my hide. And not in a good way....
For some reason all I get is a partial download. It "interrupts" at around 70%. I've tried it half a dozen times, with the same results.
Word of warning; If you buy an electronic E6B, makes sure the batteries are good, before you head in to take the written. :eek: (Fortunately I had the old standby with me, also. Took me a little...
2 seat, side x side; stick vs yoke; removable wings; economical to fly; reasonable speed. Sounds like a AeroVee powered Sonex, too me.
"Bad- A radically increased emphasis on revenue. ....this organization is supposed to be about people, not cash."
Don't blame EAA for all of the cost increases. I learned a few years ago after...
I wouldn't mind the commentary too much... if they knew what they were talking about half the time. While I'm no aviation expert, I'm not a complete idiot, either. But some of the things I've heard...
Heard that.
"I wonder what the rationale behind that is?"
Rationale? From the FAA?
(Sorry. Couldn't resist. Not that I tried all that hard...)

My first "full week" at Oshkosh was 1992. I showed up, at Camp Scholler, on the night before... and wound up camping out near Hwy 41. That's the last time THAT happened. The next year I came a couple...
With the retirement of "Rich's Incredible Pyro" this would be a natural for the Oshkosh night airshows.
If it is a Waco glider, back in the trees, and it's not in too bad a shape, it could have some value to the Warbird crowd. I'd really like to see some pictures as well.
I remeber the first time I spent the entire week at Oshkosh. It was 1992. And as I was walking across the grounds on the last day, back to pack up my camp, I thought to myself how clean the grounds...
My words, exactly. (Hush, Charlie. I'll get it built someday. Maybe.)
TM,
Unfortunately there are snobs and dirt-bags in all segments of society. Aviation is no exception. Sadly, there seems to be more than your fair share in your neck of the woods. With that fact...
Ryan,
The first thing you should do is find, and get involved with, a local EAA chapter. To find one nearby, check out the EAA Chapter locator; http://www.eaa.org/chapters/locator/
