    Engine Weights Resouce

    That link has a ton of useful information. Down at the bottom, I did find a list the author made of all types of auto engines and general weights. Very useful. Thanks. Next time, Ill pay more attention to what I'm looking at, and after looking through ask more questions.

    T-6 Plans/Kit

    Anyone know of a kit or where to get plans for a T-6? I like the old warbirds, but would like to have something with a second seat for the wife or one of the kids.

    Older Kit Plane

    I'm not a pilot, and reading through a lot of the posts in here, I'm a total newb to building or even recognizing any type of Kit plane. Ive got a question for you guys though. About 8-12 years ago, I believe I read an article in Popular Science about a kit plane/gyro. The plane could take off...
