Unfortunately, my previous hobby has left me paralyzed from the Waist down. It has been 4 years now, and I am just starting to want to move forward on thinking about learning to Fly. I have much experience with 2 strokes and understand creative design. My thinking is possible taking an 801 STOL plane and creating a roll in ramp. Just dropping down the back, making a ramp lok s almost like it was made to order. I would then roll right up into the plane and transfer onto a special swivel seat adn join you guys in the air. Of course hand controls and other equipment would be needed. Any thoughts on other options, and how others do it, would be appreciated. I have very good strength and complete normal movement from the waist up. For those with questions. I am happy to talk about the injury and situation. From my stand point, the only good thing about it... my shoes will last longer than your!!! (LOL) Looking forward to your thoughts and information. Thanks, Mike (Florida)
