Light Sport Remos GX on Display in Texas Shopping Mall

Though a Cessna 182RG touched down in a New Jersey Mall parking lot last week after an engine failure (no serious injuries, nor any damage on the ground), shoppers aren't used to seeing airplanes among the back-to-school sale items. But at the Golden Triangle Mall in Denton, Texas, a Remos GX Light Sport airplane will be on display Sept. 11-13. From there, pilot Michael Combs plans to fly a tour of all 50 states in the Remos - a project he calls Flight for the Human Spirit.

Mark Phelps is a senior editor at AVweb. He is an instrument rated private pilot and former owner of a Grumman American AA1B and a V-tail Bonanza.
