Thanks for this. Bumped into it whilst researching your earliest Oroville stuff. I have a Highlander much like this one but with Grove gear, no cuffs--VGs. That's why I want to sell the Zenith STOL CH 750/2 (with 125 hp fuel-injected IO-240 Continental). I got a ride in the SUPERSTOL at the factory in 2014; you gotta do this if you haven't already. frsmith2 has a video. That strip is badder than it looks, and the crossing "runway" was just brushed when we flew. I wonder what it will do dead stick? You just chop the power, hold the stick back, and plunk 'er in!
Hi, I'm getting my highlander rebuilt. I wanted the extended tanks like yours. Factory said that they don't exist. What's the story with your extended tanks? Thank you
I own it now and have tried to contact the original builder on several occasions to no avail. The tanks are the old design, fiber glass ones. guessing it was a custom job.
Willis Dav no way! Congrats man! We gonna see a Steve Henry Style Apex Conversion on it? Man I’m jealous, that is such a great looking aircraft! Again, congrats
Thanks man! I definitely am enjoying the bird! Still getting used to how much a Rotax vibrates but I think I will go with the Apex as is for now. We shall see if I end up going turbo, but for now it will GET IT!@@meals24u
Cathy Henry talked me out of a Super STOL. She said it's pretty much a competition plane. If you don't need that there's not much point. They're amazing, but kind of a one trick pony.
Yes! But I also like to think that a tire can be part of a wheel, and wheel isn’t generally specific to a rim. Got 20” rims on my truck, 35” tires, overall I’d say a big Titan with big wheels.. In reference to this video, they are generally called Bush-Wheels..

It would be neat to see you get yourself into a backcountry capable STOL plane Jaun..

I gotta have one. Time to sell some toys to get the ultimate toy! 🤘🔥🤘
I want to go for a ride with Kevin so bad. I don’t know if he is a CFI , it would mean a lot to have his signature in my Log book. 🚀🏁
dream plane
How much does a plane like this cost ready to fly?
Great plane!
Love your Channel, can’t believe you did a vid on one of my favourite bush planes!
Question: did Kevin sell this beauty??
Yep!
He did! I grabbed it from the cool dude that got it from him. I have my Apex sled bought!

Thanks. This is quite an airplane. Is there a spec sheet on performance and useful load?
yep check out www.justaircraft.com
So whats wrong with the Superstol? People orders for SS are 10 to 1 compared to highlander....
Are you wanting to sell ?
Long gone ..
Bring it to the northern areas of Pakistan. You would love to fly it above many pastures.
How much one of those cats go for?
Quite a bit!...check out the kits here...justaircraft.com/#gsc.tab=0
Wow! i just checked those out. 25k for the kit not including the engine. Looks fun though.

Those are big tires, not big wheels.
Yes!

His math is not so good. 13+13+5+5=36 not 46
Conrad Senior I just notice that. Almost 9 hours of gas.
ME WANT BAD
To bad you can’t fold the wings and take it home to save 250 a month for hanger fees.
You can’t? Like the kitfox?
I think the wings fold on this ?
The wings do fold on all Highlander and super stols
