Hello,
Jean-Pierre, 58, LFCE Airfield, France.
Sorry : my English will be what it will be.
First attempt as a homebuit : a Chanute-like in 1970. No result.
Glider pilot 1970/1978, light single 1973/1995, ultralight since 1986.
I built three wooden prototypes directly inspired from the 20' to 50'...
Here a link for the three :

Le forum des pilotes privés • Afficher le sujet - encore un accident

First : Mignet formula, DAF engine, first flight 1998
Second : my present aircraft, VW 1600, 2002, 530 hours
Third : (not an accident !) DAF, 2000

JP.
