Got to give him credit. Not a bad effort for "6 months intensive research on the internet" :blink:

Any bets on it getting airborne?

I reckon the weights are right out. The wheels are way too far aft and the wings too far forward. They should have made it a tail dragger. Definitely give them points for trying.

Was there ever a news story about whether it flew or not?


I know there's a lot of money in aviation because I put it there.

Absolutely astounding - Can we buy these in Australia? Maybe it is as good as some of the RA Aus a/c getting around.....:unsure:

Just in reply to my previous post, yes there was a follow up story.. On the take off run the landing gear collapsed. Methinks he got away lucky!
