4 place kit / experimental planes by
Dude

experimental planes. I was hoping to find a website that would have

Can anyone help me find such a website?
Cheers,
Chris

Harry K
The test pilot of the first flight of Boeings new jet liner was the co-
pilot of the restored Boeing Stratoline that ditched in Elliot bay due
to lack of fuel.
Guess one screwup doesn't shortstop a career.

The earth pulls down on the plane... by
Alan Baker
....and the plane pulls up on the earth.
The air pushes up on the plane and the plane pushes down on the air;
essentially transferring the earth's continuous flow of downward
momentum acting on the plane to a much greater mass of air.
That air keeps that downward momentum, diffusing it through...

If you can argue that

seen in the 2004...

Does anyone know if Temperfoam can be hot wired?

NACA profile calculations by
jan olieslagers[_2_]
I have got into plotting NACA profiles by computing. Humbly beginning
with the simplest, which I presume to be NACA 4-digit, I found the
Wikipedia page as a prime source of information.
Plotting a symmetrical profile is not that hard: at regular intervals
(=X along the chord), one calculates...

Keys to flying in ground effect: by
durabol[_2_]
Keys to flying in ground effect:
-want sensitive control so can react quickly to "squirelyness"
-large stabilizer (perhaps a stabilator) and longish tail boom
-optimized control surfaces for good control at low speed
-best to fly only in low wind
-long tow rope to avoid turbulence of or crashing...

Loose Wing Covering Possible? by
durabol[_2_]
I was wondering it a loose fitting covering that becomes taut when
flying might be possible. This would be for heavily "under chambered"

anyone heard of this before?
