    I flew from ATL to IAD yesterday on United and they were asking for volunteers NO one took them up on it but no one got dragged off either I have never seen so many cell phones on the ready for the next viral video. I then asked if no willingly volunteers do we get dragged off to be the next United star?

    Couldn't tell, does the full kit come with an engine too? I'd never heard of these before and now I'm intrigued!

    No engine included. It looks like the kits include everything airframe wise but you have to source the recommended engine and any gauges for the cockpit.

    A bunch of them can be powered by converted VW air cooled engines which are actually pretty affordable. Rotax also makes engines that power a large percentage of home built aircraft.

    Something like this requires a decent rotary. Hard to find, and not cheap. Google showed a company called Rotec that makes modern versions of classic radials, and no one lists prices.

    Not a good sign if you're on a budget!

    Once you're seated and the airplane starts it's pushback, you can take off your FAA approved boarding suit. :D

    Any time we get the Russian built private jets going out, it's like there purposely built for rolling coal in the sky, just two miles long smoke trails

    Haven't contributed anything to this thread in awhile. Went to the Warplane Heritage Mueseum today while on a 30 hour layover. Didn't take many pictures with everything roped off and crowded together, but here's a Harvard (Texan to those south of the Canadian boarder), and a Norseman Mk. IV.
