    Laser 200 build questions

    Hey guys, I'm sure everyone here knows me as the kid who can never make up his mind, well I bit the bullet and picked up a set of laser 200 plans. As expected they didn't come with a build manual so I'm seriously appreciative of the fact I took CAD and mechanical drafting classes in high school...

    Wanted: Flying Sonerai in average condition

    Hey guys new to the forum but not to experimental. My girlfriend and I are looking to pick up a flying Sonerai II or IIL in average condition for around $9,000. We're both small, combined we weigh 250, so size isn't really an issue but were still looking for one with a 2180. She's an A&P and I'm...

    Laser 200 Plans/Parts

    Looking for a cheap set of laser 200 plans and any parts you may have. Flight instructing doesn't make that much but it's enough to build one part at a time!

    Midget mustang safety rating

    Hey guys, the MM has kinda gotten a bad wrap of being a flying coffin. Are there actually any statistics to back that? Is it as bad as the lancair 4s (a real flying coffin) or is everyone just overstating it all.

    WAR under new management

    I know many of you did not like WAR aircraft because of the previous owner. Well due to medical issues he has been forced to sell the company to a previous WAR p-47 owner and current BF-109 builder in the tulsa OAK area. Hopefully he turns the company around and gets some new engineers to build...

    Another private pilot and a hated 150

    Guys! After being on this forum for 3(? Maybe 4) years, I can finally say I'm a private pilot. After 7 discontinuances for weather and mechanical issues I finally finished it. The VOR almost went out(stopped working and had to replace fuse mid flight) which almost made me land and try an 8th...

    So, Im sitting here with bad weather and I decided I wanted to build an RC plane. After looking for a few hours I noticed there's really nothing that will keep me occupied for more than a day of building. I figured welp if Im going to build something I might as well start from scratch. I'm...

    Lancair.... Anyone built one?

    I know, I know, everyone's jumping up and down that I'm asking about yet ANOTHER airplane... But I don't want to build this one... It's simply unattainable.

    New rudder gust lock and aircraft security system

    I'll just leave these here... I got bored in my CADD (computer aided design drafting) class and printed this off the 3D printer...
