Ken Welter is still flying his rotary powered Coot. He has
now based it in the San Juan Islands north of Seattle so he does
not have to drone up in it all the way from near Portland Oregon where
he lives.

Ken web site is temporarily down but here are a bunch of pictures.

Paul Lamar ...No rotor no motor.

   I haven't based the Coot up in the islands yet as I need to get my
Zenith 601 done first so I can buzz up and back with it, I hope to
have the 601 flying by the end of the year, just getting started on
it but I cannot believe how simple and easy this plane is to build, I
am scratch building it and had all the al the parts cut with a laser.

That is a neat airplane Ken. Looks like real benign flying
characteristics with that thick wing.

Too bad we don't have a 200 pound firewall forward rotary.
What did you pay for your O-200 Ken?
