    Inspirational Flight

    I remember reading about this guy back when he built this Wright Flyer. If I remember right he wanted to prove the Flyer was capable of turning, not just a straight line machine. Its not 100%; looks like doped fabric and a much more powerful engine, but that not the point. The airframe its...

    Wicks

    On the Biplane forum, there is a thread talking about Wicks backing out of the spruce selling. The guy was wanting spars for a Charger bipe and they cancelled the order and said its getting too hard to get good wood so they are stopping. They told the guy to go to ACS. Has anyone else had recent...

    F-35 Detractors and Supporters Square Off

    VP flight is Air Force Two. They are probably scared to beat the F-15 record with the F-22, because they sunk the program for the F-35, and dont want to hurt what F-22s they have. I would bet the F-22 would smoke the record just because it will go supersonic with no afterburner. Slippery...

    Excerpt from the Falco manual

    Philosophy from the Falco manual. Pretty much spot on for 99%. "The tendency to dream about “little” changes is only human nature. Everyone goes through this stage. Please, keep yourself under control, take a cold shower, and concentrate on building the Falco to the plans. Over the years...

    Wood Builders Dream Chance

    Just left the Falco company website and they are shutting down. Very sad for arguably the prettiest airplane ever. They do believe in keeping the plane alive, so they are offering the plans for download free. They have distributed jigs and other things to people to offer some prebuilt...

    Drain holes in leading edge

    I have myself a restoration project of a Starduster One. The plane had metal leading edges, but the previous owner started some repair and decided to change the top wing to a ply leading edge. Should there be drain holes in the D section of the leading edge? I will change the bottom over to...
