    new guy with "which plane" question

    why don't you have a look at the zenith 801. not quite as fast as you wanted but still pretty speedy, not too expensive, and all metal.

    Viper Jet

    If you just want to go fast how about this? 1969 PZL TS-11 ISKRA For Sale At Controller.com

    Where are the fast high wing LSA kits?

    Just to add on to orion, Cessna is probably the biggest name in general aviation. I dare say that a lot of the sales were on brand power alone. Not because the plane is superior to everything else.

    Where are the fast high wing LSA kits?

    High end pricing? You can get a brand new Jabiru J120 (which meets LSA requirements for AU$58,000. And that includes engine and panel.

    UAV design

    was expecting to need large wings. also notice i only said that the batteries needed to last 13hrs. Not how long i wanted it to stay airborne :P

    UAV design

    haven't really started any of the designing yet but was thinking of. 13 hrs worth of batteries. probably will need 2 brushless model aircraft engines (unless anyone knows where i can get a larger size electric engine) thin film solar panels along the wings. pico pilot or ardupilot pro control...

    Where are the fast high wing LSA kits?

    the high wing glasairs are pretty speedy but i don't know if the meet the LSA requirements. If you're in the US remember that LSA's have a maximum (legal) speed of 120kts.

    Grumman panther (actual jet fighter)

    I'll have to check when I get home but I think it was a modified GE engine

    Grumman panther (actual jet fighter)

    Haven't gotten around to scanning it yet but in the latest issue of australian flying magazine, they ran an article about a guy who scratch built a 3/4 scale jet powered grumman panther. So for all those who say that jet powered homebuilts aren't feasible, think again.

    Another day, another new idea

    WTF is that thing? looks like some strange metallic goose. Russian?

    Another day, another new idea

    Did someone say jet?
  16. S

    Say it isn't so.

    cool. I just saw it on the bottom of this website http://www.jetangel.com/squadron.html which obviously hasn't been updated.

    Say it isn't so.

    Is it true that the US government mandated the destruction of all civilian owned demilitarized fighter aircraft?
  18. S

    I wonder if Jake can do this?

    The Navys "dancing squirrels" aerobatics team can do a lot of stuff like that.
  19. S

    My design concept...

    Since you are looking at ultralight, you may want to have a talk to RA-Aus first as their rules for homebuilts are different to those of CASA.
