    Man's Gravity Assist Flight

    Can't we all agree to disagree only the guys in the original video know the real truth. Mythbusters already proved the concept possible, it's just the distances and slope angles that need tweaking to make the stunt realiably possible. Those bumps aren't serious enough to be mentioned. Those...

    Man's Gravity Assist Flight

    What do you guys mean by fake, this is simple pyshics. If you substituted the guy on a slide with a guy on a motorcycle this stunt would be more believable wouldn't it. Just because it's stupid doesnt mean it impossible. Those guys must be a couple of crazy college kids who just walked out of...

    About Dyke Delta

    hey stevetosh, did they accept you as a member? I applied like 2 days ago and got accepted in less than a day after. In my message all I said was "I'd like to construct a homebuilt aircraft someday and I'm interested in the Dyke Delta." There has been like 10 new persons since december on the...

    Pusher prop - mini f-22?

    It's cool but the aesthetics is hurting my eyes.:ermm: I'd really love it they would refine the design, make it a near perfect scaled replica [like how the Sal p-51, FEW 51, or Steward 51 is to the original P-51D] but with a pusher prop configuration. A 2 seater version would be nice with a...

    Alternative covering method?

    Its your decision but if it were me I'd build a new fuselage. I dont have any experience building or repairing airplanes but I have done a get deal work rebuilding basket-case motorcycles. In my opinion its a hell of lot more safer, easier and efficient to slap in a perfectly fine engine from a...

    How to crash a Plane and survive!?

    Howdy Guys, since whole concept of Ultralight Aviation sparked my interest about half a year ago I've heard a whole bunch of stories of forced landings. Most of them luckily landed safely but about 1/4 crashed, some of the pilots got survivable injuries like broken ankles, broken ribs, punctured...

    Hi guys, I have a question, I've just downloaded the plans for the Cri MC-15 free from a yahoo group. Is it alright to build and fly without permission from Colomban?
