Thanks for posting. I'm a big fan of this ac. Even though I know it's extremely unlikely he will ever release plans for the Skigull I hope maybe just maybe someone else might come up with a close copy.I found this video on YouTube. Burt gave a talk to the students at North Idaho College about the SkiGull. He admitted that he made several bad mistakes with the airplane that required some redesign. He says that the airplane is complete now, ready for paint. He's done some stall tests on the runway and said he was hoping to continue the test flights in the coming weeks.
Audio isn't very good, but it's an interesting talk to listen

I don't think it'll be a very inexpensive bird to build though.
Really, why ? If it's a mold less composite like all his other kits it won't be very expensive at all. The most expensive part will be the Rotax engine in that case.
