Default Wright Flyer I Model Airplane

All of you are missing the point. The pilot of the RV6 lost power and had to
make allot of choices quick. One fact that sticks is the stall speed of
these heavy planes.The stall speed is the problem. Had she had an emergency
chute to open ,,,the plane and pilots could have been saved.Lighter craft
can land at slower speeds and to decrees the stall speed by 20 miles an
hour will put the impact G forces nearly 100% slower than at 55 miles an
hour.Airbags in the proper places could also have prevented the man from
loosing his wife. Inthe cheapest auto made,,airbags are included and the
price of the car is less than 20k. Not only are the engines antique, but
the safety ideas and design manors are also stuck in the pass.. My heart
goes out to him and his children for their loss and look to the future when
safety in the cockpit will be number one. The devices are there. Just need
to start applying them.

The Wright Flyer was also known as the Flyer I and sometimes Kitty
Hawk. It was an experimental airplane designed and built by the Wright
Brothers. It was the first sustained controlled heavier-than-air
powered flight.

Warplanes.com offers the Wright Brother Flyer I model airplane on 30%
sale. It has a span of 20 inches and length of 10 inches. It was a
complete replica of the original aircraft and it will be a perfect
desktop display.
