Flaglor Scooter

The Flaglor Scooter is an all-wood construction, fabric-covered homebuilt introduced in 1967.  Like many homebuilt aircraft, it is designed to be easy to build and maintain with the tools generally found in a home workshop.  Also in common with many other homebuilts it is powered by a modified automobile engine.  In this case a 1600 CC Volkswagen engine.  The Scooter was sold as a set of plans and with the addition of an engine cost about $7,500 to build.
