Hi all, just wanted to pass on that my Soko 522 has flown again after 3 1/2 years down. It flew great, the first flight was stiff legged, the subsequent flights with the wheels up went well. Chase was Ladd Gardner in his T6. Im based at GTU ( Georgetown Tx) come by and see. It is for sale if anyone is interested. diverair@ev1.net 512 848 0409

Looks good! It's nice to see something a little different airborne.

I am glad to see you back in the air with your Soko. It looks like you have done a great job working on it, Simon.
Tell us more about the Soko and post more pictures!
