I just started my adventure of building one. I really appreciate the video!

Volmer repair update: now have 3 Lycoming o290's to make one good one, maybe one is good already but will have to tear them all down and inspect everything. have the broken wings and another set of airworthy wings to make a good pair from. need all new avionics and new rudder, vert stab and elevators yet to collect. In the meantime am flying N1120L, lake La-4. I am determined to get that volmer back in the air.

Volmer vj-22s are quite rare. Even more rare since I damaged this one. Maybe repairable. Sort of a good thing in a way because the post incident motor teardown showed impending doom, bad crank and cam.

John, what an absolutely gorgeous flight. The Volmer is such a pretty and capable little amphib by the looks of her. I'm not a pilot, but have had some gliding, hang gliding and RC plane experience. I always enjoy watching these sorts of videos. Thanks for uploading a video of her, as, from what I know, the Sportsman is a pretty rare plane-- 500 and change in plans sold and 100 built? or is that an old figure? Thanks again for sharing your experience. Nick

Cool plane, great video!!! I wanted to ask did you build this bird or was it ready? I would like to talk about the design. I'm building something similar....
