I don't understand one thing, about the flying Pinto.

Why, or how, did some FAA inspector sign that thing off as airworthy? It
should have seemed quite obvious that the quality of the construction was
in
no way up to aircraft construction standards, right?

It should have been criminal, if it wasn't.


Jim.............

You misunderstand the function and responsibilities of the FAA. They do not
give a rip whether your project is airworthy. You must comply with
regulations regarding placards, paperwork, registration, etc. Will it fly?
That's strictly up to you.

Ain't America great?? !!! It's called Freedom and Personal Responsibility.
