Mike Arnold's AR-5 Videotapes by
Larry Smith
If you ever get the chance to see these, do. This guy is a real craftsman,
and with the AR-5 he broke the 1 sq ft flat plate drag barrier, which at one
time was predicted to be unbreakable. He also took a world record away from
Germany and brought it back to the USA.
For you RV builders and...

the thrill of flying interview is here! by
BW
A liberal response to what I've read...
There's no denying what you experienced. If you were thrilled by
something, then that's what happened - whether it was planned or came
from a surprise.
Whether it was appropriate OR how you handled it is a question for
debate. I've really learned something...

square tube aluminum homebuilt by
Joa
About a year ago I saw mention (and saw their page) to a square tube,
low wing, Rotax 912 powered bird. Can someone refresh my memory with
what the company is up to with their design?
I think it was called "Independence" or something patriotic like that.
Thanks.

Rare aircraft types photographed by
Bob
I came across a photoguide to aircraft in the UK, it's not well advertised
so you may not have seen it. http://www.ukskies.co.uk. It's got hundreds
of aircraft types so it's worth a look.
Does anyone know of any other good sites?

Custom Planes type? by
Corrie
In the Oct. Custom Planes article on VW crackshafts, it seems that the
text and the chart do not agree. The text says that 1 and 4 are the
paired cylinders. According to the chart, though (based on the
description of 'paired' in the text), 1 and 3 should be paired.
Am I having a premature senior...
