[fIugasche]

3 people were not able to built this in there garage

[TheChickeneer]

How much money would that cost?

[Mr2Waren2]

@TheChickeneer My dad had that thing 2 years ago and I think it's more than 800 $ and if you wanna with motor it's more than 1500 $ depends what motor is used and if you wanna trailer with plane or not...it's not so cheap.

Мне бы тоже полетать...



[nickfowlerflap]

[nonickisavailable]

3 people didnt like this video.. they were probably expecting to see Airbus A380 and were deeply disappointed when they saw this...

[Lycantrop16]

You have built beautiful glider! Congratulations!

[betoosorio]

You need very special conditions to fly it... right? very nice

[spikesonthebrain]

@betoosorio It's probably best used by a hilly coast like this or in the mountains to take advantage of ridge lift.

[cibaca1]

which one is the best glider?

[mohammad340able]

so nice 

[fandongos14]

[SkyGuardian2007]

Couldn't be much perfect as it was! Loved the footage with the flying glider and the bird next to it.

[dspdoron]

Cool plane! well done!

[LWJCarroll]

Looks good!!..reminds me of a similar design back in the 80's I think...Laurie

[toniattojr]

this is only to lifyt or is avaliable to fly in thermous ?

[1carloselsocio]

buenisimo quiero uno asi  planeador

[michaellogantv]

What is the behavior of this gliders in strong wind conditions?

[rentatrip1]

also known for over 70 years as primary gilders many have been bult from plans & kits dating as far back as the 30's....

[josephdupont]

mr. torrey is buried in Long HIll Township.

[jwm239]

...presumably the pilot controls pitch/roll/yaw via moveable control

surfaces like a conventional airplane.

[binashraf]

how do you conntrol direction/height etc once in the air? thanx

[binashraf]

if you put pedals on it connected to the wheel,woud it be possible to launch from a level spot?

[BenQueensland]

That looks nice.

[archerrobinhood]

what's the wingspan?

[eagle416]

I've been searching everywhere for plans for this thing. Can anybody link me to instructions for GOAT?

[mrmagoohi]

The plan of this glider had to be available to all, just so everyone could fly with his own glider, glider excellent, the best of all!

[archerrobinhood]

I'm building one!! BUT instead of taking off from a chair, im putting my bycycle so i can cycle down the hill to take off and labd better :)

[JumalanMyrsky]

Very good idea, but have you increased the wing area or something because after you take off your bicycle becomes dead weight?

Also building Goat

[archerrobinhood]

i thought about that and think im gonna use bigger wings. my uncle has a boat so i was thinking of putting floats on it so maybe i can be towed from the sea...what do you think?

[ALBATROSBOTROS]

NO COMMENT. IT'S THE BEST

[captainalexnorthey]

omg awsome i want one.i was wondering where you can get the parts to make in the uk.thanks

[fredfighteru]

It' s made from scratch.

[yosoyelmesmo]

WoW!, this still inspire me, thanks to Mike and Floyd I discover FreeFlight and its my passion now; I still have some parts of my GOAT project stored in the backyard but since it was taking time to Built and was eager to Fly, I choose a shortcut and bought a paraglider 3 years ago; Now I look back at this Brave Pilots: Flying in a home made machine, Good Flights Fellows! and will be gratefull for life for introducing me in the sport... Kliber.

[Sheph77]

I was just wondering if anyone in the UK has, or is in the process of building one of these? I am looking for a supplier of aluminium tubing in the UK and cant find anywhere that stocks the correct sizes at a reasonable price! If anyone knows anywhere send me a message or post a comment here! Cheers!

[frogger2222]

that was sweet , wat kinda price u pay for the building supplys ?

[safeshark]

They're free, go to:

homeDOTattDOTnet/~m--sandlin/b­ugDOThtm

[safeshark]

the plans that is, not the supplies lol

[hrford]

"How much runway do you need for a launch?" ... "About two feet"

[flurryandtito]

sweeeeeet!

[1australopithecus]

Absoluteley amazing control

[knifeedge63]

that looks fun!

who manufactures these?

and what is it called?

[JumalanMyrsky]

The "Goat" is a non-commercial project, and the designer has put the plans freely available on the net. Type in the google: basic ultralight glider.

I am building one myself!

[61914]

looks like a lot of thermals, happy gliding!
