Very nice airplane! The cockpit design and lay-out is just the way I’d like to have it my self. Take a look at my web-page under "Mikrofly" and see my C-42-B cockpitfor comparison. It’s 6 years old now but still up to standard.
Mom always said; Slow&Low ! Take Care ! |

Hi John,
Just checked out your story... welcome to the Alpi family. I have just finished my second build of a Pioneer 300. I live in Melbourne Australia and flew with Terry, previous notation, to Perth last year. Great flight, 2 P300s did it with ease.
Your bird looks great and you must be thrilled to have it up and going. I know Chris from New Zealand well and I’ve seen his P300, about finished, it is a beautiful plane as well.
If you get a chance to come to the "Land Down Under" get in touch and I’ll introduce you around.

Hi, and well done, she looks wonderful! I built the first 300 in Australia two years ago with a Jabiru 6 cyl 120 hp 3300.It was a basic kit before the UK PFA kit was available, and I had to build the wash-out into the wings etc. I now have 200 fault-free hours up and have flown to Perth and return ( 8000km ) and central Queensland (6000km), I have taken out 3 major awards at major airshows and just love the 300. Logan Mclean, New Zealand Australasian dealer, is a wonderful mentor and has now seen 5 300’s and 5 200’s sold in Oz in the last 18 months. I thank Frank in Wales for my first flight in a Pioneer 300 and all ar the factory for their continuing support.

Shaun,
Change of plans and buying something bigger. You are right though, its a great plane. Still I can’t have both so she has to go.

Hi John,
I saw your advert on AFORS.
What a fantastically finished aircraft!
Why are you selling her, after putting so much effort in?
If only I could afford her (especially as she has most of my surname on her already.....)
Good luck with the sale. I’ll be in touch if I win the lottery / rob a bank etc!!

Hi John,
Great website, I haven’t checked it since before your final assembly - very interesting about the test flights. Excellent panel, don’t think i’ve seen anything looking that good outside of a commercial jet ! I hope one day I can build my own plane, this is an inspiration, Thanks,
Kevin |
