    Trailer Design - Resources?

    You know, speaking from the peanut gallery, it occurs to me that if people are wanting to build their own custom-specialized trailers folks might want to investigate "Tiny Home" builder websites and info sources. Considering this is a very hands on, diy community it's kind of up folks boats (or...

    New Guy,

    I actually am hoping to do flight training stuff, possibly as soon as spring. I am hoping to go all the way to private pilot, but LSA is what I was aiming for, or even 103 if I could but wasn't married to it for a first build. I admit, I like the look of the FP-404, and really like the Tiger...

    New Guy,

    My aviation background is "Wanna be." I'm getting ready to sign up for lessons probably starting in the spring so I'm not in a rush (obviously). My budget is, sadly, as little as I can manage. And I'm very much going to learn as I go. For a project, or first project maybe, I was thinking...

    New Guy,

    Hello folks, new guy here. I've no idea what I may end up doing, since I've just really started thinking about it. I'm honestly thinking in terms of finding a first project, something relatively (relatively!) straightforward. No idea what that might be, though... either way, hello!
