Hi,
I have been thinking about building my own aeroplane, actually I have been thinking about building an aeroplane on and off for a long time. But what to build? So many choices and so many conflicting specifications. Actually defining what it was I wanted from the finished aeroplane, helped to shorten the list considerably. The problem was once I identified my specifications, I could not find a supplier of either a kits or plans that satisfied me. So...
What to Do?
In the true spirit of the experimental aircraft category, lets just design and build it myself. Easier said than done, but why not? The rules allow it. Could I not investigate this possibility? This idea has taken seed, and this blog is intended to follow the design of a light twin engine aeroplane. Why a twin, well that will be the subject for another post.
As I journey down this road I may well find the task is beyond my abilities or time constrains, however regardless of the result, I do expect to expand my own understanding of aerodynamics and structures. This can only be a good thing.
