    Do you wear a pilot emergency parachute? How often? Only phase one testing? Aerobatics? Formation flying? Every flight? Back type? Long back type? Seat type? Chest type? Ballistic recovery system? Do you strap a PEP on passengers?

    Wing Shape and Flight Characteristics

    I’ve been going through Dan Raymer’s book on aircraft design for homebuilders; it's great! Now I’m at the point to design my wing and this is the first place I’ve gotten stuck. My aircraft mission is to be competitive in the aerobatic world, capable of all the advanced maneuvers normal and...

    HELP: two-seater aerobatic with removable wings?

    Hi all, I am looking for a two-seater design (perferably side by side) with sport aerobatic capability with two on board plus some fuel and it must have folding or easily movable wings. All building materials are OK. They say there are over 300 homebuilt airplane designs, but I just can't find...

    New design project: Aerobatic ultralight biplane

    Like many pilots, "I want it all". Unfortunately nobody's making the low cost fully aerobatic ultralight amphibian bush plane I want :dis:, so I guess a few compromises are in order. After the UltraStar I'm flying now only meets two of those criteria (ultralight and low cost). One could put...
