"Clotilde" flew for the first time on May 29, 1999. My wife and I built it in 6 years. Clotilde has a Garmin 327, 430W, TRIO EZ-Pilot, Altrak altitude hold, Dynon Skyview, D10A, KX 125, O360-A1A and a Aluminum Sensenich propeller. Clotilde is based at T.P. McCampbell Airport where Peggy and Gus have decided to make their new home since 2009.

Horton Door
The hangar door is a Horton Door. I am very satisfied with this door, I first came across this door at Cypress Creek Airpark in Houston. It impressed me how easy it was to open and close, the amount of light that gets through and the fact that it can be open as much as you need and only limited by the width of the panels. My door is 42 feet wide, has 12 panels, 38 inches per panel. Six panels open to the left and six to the right. The door rides on a channel that is installed flushed with the concrete. Although the installation of the channel seems to be difficult when you read the instructions it actually is very simple. Just follow the dimensions given in the installation instructions. The folks at Horton in Kansas are very customer oriented. I certainly recomend this door to other future builders. There are picture of this door that you can see in this blog. http://www.hortonstackdoor.com/
