Hazardous Chemicals, Dave Prizio
As you build and maintain your GlaStar or Sportsman you will likely use a number of hazardous chemicals. Knowing how to handle these chemicals safely and what to
do in case of an accident can protect you from serious harm or even save your life.

No Carburetor Shortage, Dave Prizio
Precision announced earlier this month that it was suspending manufacture and distribution of the carbs and parts after it was unable to obtain product liability insurance.

Stringfellow Accident
Jim Stringfellow’s GlaStar, N33CP, suffered substantial damage when it flipped over while landing at Williston, Florida. He suffered minor injuries in the incident.
