John. Funny you mention Oakley. I grew up on a farm in the Grinnell area which is the next town east of Oakley. In 1970, I was a 4 yr old, clueless to the world. I will be back there to pick up my dad’s Skylane for its annual inspection. Finally some cross country flying this year. Roger Baalman Owasso OK.

Zach - I’ve owned two Midgets n my life. First was a ‘66 that I got in late summer of ‘67. It had 10,000 miles and had just had an engine rebuild. (Previous owner ran out of oil.) I put another 80+ thousand on it until I blew the motor just outside of Oakley, Kansas in ‘70.
Bought a new ‘73 when I got back from SEA. Lots to f fun with both. Yes, they are small. Bit, if you are committed, you can double date in one. 😁 On Apr 8, 2025, at 9:48 AM, Adam Deem via KRnet <krnet@list.krnet.org> wrote:

Zach,
Looks like a fun new toy but as you are still young and single, I feel
compelled to remind you that neither of them are capable of carrying
babies. 🙁🙁 I see a Cessna or SUV in your future.
