VariEze N117PJ

My name is John Anderson and I live in Havre, Montana. N117PJ weighs about 600lbs and is powered with the dependable C-85 Continental.

I've been flying my VariEze since July 28, 1995. As of January1999 I have flown it about 375 hours. My Eze has helped me seethings from the air that are much too beautiful to ever describe with words. The Cascade Mountains, Columbia River Gorge, Grand Canyon, The Great Salt Lake, The Tetons, Missouri River Breaks (my favorite), Wolf Creek Canyon, Montana and the clouds. Build an airplane and go flying, you'll never regret the experience. (ya here me Bob P.?)

"At the beginning of the first flight I was busy doingthat pilot thing. Watch your airspeed, oil temp ok. At about 800'agl I realizedthat not only was I still alive but that this was the best flyingairplane I had ever flown." (July 28, 1995)
