Vision #2
This is Sean Ponsonby's Serial #0002 plane. He is one of several Beta Builders
who took on early construction of the Vision to prove the plans BEFORE
they went on sale to the public. The prototype was built FROM the construction
manuals as his is. There are a a growing number moving along right
now. Sean's was entirely fabricated in a two car garage,
This was the first assembled rollout.
This is Sean Ponsonby's O-320 powered "Super" Vision parked
with the prototype on 8/12/97.
Here is the same plane on it's FIRST FLIGHT
on 9/10/97. This is the first Vision built by a customer who had
never built a plane before.
and another picture on a low pass. We are very proud
of Sean and his effort. With the obstacles and
negativity of today's world this really is what it's all about, THE REALIZATION
OF A DREAM!
Consider that Sean now has a plane that is capable of over 200
mph cruise at 8,000 feet, climbs 2300 fpm at sea level ( climbs 1700 fpm
at 6,000 feet), is fully IFR, was built in under 2_1/2 years by a first
time builder, still lands at under 60 mph, and cost less than
$30,000.00 complete. We invite you to find that combination
in a full size plane anywhere.
THANK YOU for your interest.
