This page is just a few pictures of my Dad's Long-Ez that was a staple of our garage growing up. Dino was constructed by Steve Beert, my old man, during the better part of the 80's, 90's and a couple of years into the new millennium; pretty much the majority of my lifetime. As a youngster I nicknamed the project "Dino" due to the amount of time that the my dad had been working on the project with no end in sight. The name stuck, he added a nice custom decal of Dino on the winglet after painting and the rest is history. He has taken the plane all over the US and even won a few awards along the way so I guess the time invested was well worth it. Since digital cameras came around during the later stages of Dino's construction this is only a small sample of pictures, mostly the later years. If I ever get motivated to scan in all the pictures from the earlier years I will definately add them in as well.
Also, the May 2004 issue of Sport Aviation had a nice article on the project, so if you are interested click on this link to check it out.(Adobe Reader required)
