The Original Legal Eagle Ultralight Airplane
Leonard Milholland has sold the original Legal Eagle Ultralight airplane he designed and built 25+ years ago. This was the “one that started it all.” This design struck a chord with many flying enthusiasts. It became such a popular idea that Leonard created plans to sell to those who wanted to build one of their own.
Bob Richards of Bryan, TX, is the new owner. Bob came on November 29, 2023, to collect his new possession. Leonard believes that Mr Richards is the right guy to take this airplane into the future.
Leonard is getting into the Legal Eagle for the last time as the owner.
Many props have graced the original and “famous” Better Half VW Engine designed and built by Leonard, but this is the latest one by his favorite propeller manufacturer. When he handed it over, he said, “It’s got plenty of Sports Flyers Estates grass on it.”
History is passed on…
