    Saunders JetHawk...Any builders?

    Grimace- Usually slower flight requires less structure than fast flight. Correct. I was trying to say, How the Jet Hawk controls are set, are made for a lot higher speeds than what it can handle(Notice its partially Jet Aircraft Design). Grimace- So you are going to build the parts needed...

    New Age Material For Aircraft?

    I can get rods, bars, flats and just about any size. Damascus steel is intertwined stainless steel and nickel which is forged together which gives it the marble cake effect, It is proven swords of Damascus can take a hit far stronger than a high carbon spring steel sword. Damascus is still...

    Saunders JetHawk...Any builders?

    Grimace-So I assume your father will be analyzing the structure before you build? We over looked everything in the plans and found that poor materials and certain materials in certain specific areas are just not going to work right.- (Late 1980's-Technology/Materials list/Building...

    This is the thread I've been wanting to see.I have two supersonic scram jet engines in the works specially for a disk shaped aircraft project to come out in 2011,but I'm not concerning them to take off and land vertically. To do so you could also put 3 or 4 or 5 engines around the center but you...

    I bought a set of plans awhile back of the Treco TG or Tj 301 Gas turbine. Has any one ever heard of it?

    It is not a waste of money. I think its revolutionary. Not many people work with ducted fan one-seater aircraft or build them. The plans are not hard to follow and its been in the air before.This aircraft can be perfected,and done right. Greatest of all its power plant is a car engine, a mazda...
