Launch site.

Read the memo: "Install run-flat tires!"

Except for the wing sweep, very close in profile to the B52. Since Jimmy Stewart was an actual bomber pilot during the war, I bet he could have flown this plane.

Why are those steel nets so close to the runway? Wouldn't kill you to move them back 10 ft. would it?

Hope he plays for Taiwan and not those commies on the Mainland.

NIce cabinets! What't the efficiency rating of the speakers?

@MynameisElliott Ok.

Incredible stuff! I'm assuming that government approval was needed for launching a rocket into the upper stratosphere? Was the airspace around you cleared, or did you just launch and hope that you wouldn't bring down any planes?

A pale imitation of the original Veritas line. Time marches on, I suppose.

What an idiot!

Sounds like this so-called "hunter" is desperately trying to reaffirm his manhood. If one must hunt these magnificent creatures, for God's sake, carry a large-calibre rifle that will kill it with one shot! Don't be hunting lions with a bow that will most likely wound the poor an...

Direct from Thailand!

That should attract Great Whites nicely.

Poor old Moeller. He's tried to get a successful consumer version of this "car" off the ground for decades. The problem is that these machines would be as difficult to fly as a Harrier.

Like a prop plane taking off into the wind from an aircraft carrier.

@MrHogGamer It's always great fun to hear revisionist history. To know that the Germans were completely innocent of any wrongdoing whatsoever during WWII, warms the cockles of my heart.

Keep trying! Dihedral is vital for stability in flight. A proper, uniform airfoil is mandatory. This plane flies itself, which means trim is very important. If you can, get contest-grade balsa, since it is lighter than the balsa most hobby shops sell. Use as little material as you can when b...

Great plane! Too good to lose in the ocean. Better install some landing gear so you can fly it on land.

@alanimoikan I breed Sealyhams. You'd best check some of the European standards for breeds. Certain breeds are no longer allowed in the show ring if tails or ears are docked. This includes Dobermans, Great Danes, Sealyham Terriers and some others. The Westminster Kennel Club is also in the proc...

Incredible plane and pilot! Never seen anything like it. Scale speed would be off the charts. I wonder what the actual speed would be?

Yikes! There goes a $4,000 motor! Or not? Did the Moki survive?

I'm mystified by this hovering business. I'm sure it's a fine display of control skills, but for me it's nowhere near as entertaining as watching a plane do barrel rolls, loops and all the other things that aerobatic pilots do. Stop hovering and start flying, or perhaps get a helicopter.

Yes, in absolute terms, the death penalty is inhumane. And that's the point. Any potential murderer with at least a modicum of brain activity, should take this as a warning. You kill, you will be killed. Perhaps in this instance, this individual experienced some of the pain and terror that he...

@hispanicuscorpus I am Canadian and agree. But what about the Spaniards? Too much tapas!

A great invention. It's my opinion that these devices should be mandatory on all private planes

A terrifying movie. Better to be obliterated by the initial strike, than live through the horrors of the aftermath.

What a sweetheart! The world needs more Tiffs.

A display piece, perhaps? Insufficient wing area. Prop too small. Body not long enough to hold the rubber motor required to get it into the air. The wheel assembly is absurd. Should be half the height.

Beautiful old glider.

Photoshop. Hatred of the government, self-hatred and paranoia make for conspiracy theories. Seek help!

Paranoia unleashed.

@pttike1981 I like adrenalin-inducing sports myself, but I fail to see how Jeb is pushing humanity forward by doing what he does. It's extreme sport, not brain-surgery.

A true yogi wouldn't have a parachute.

Why the anhedral? Not the most stable of wing designs. Glide ratio indicates higher than ideal wing loading. Better increase wing chord or wing length. Needs tricycle gear. The way you have it now, crosswinds are going to cause major takeoff problems, not to mention landings. I admire your in...

It should be equipped with tiny missiles to blow up tiny terrorists.

And don't forget to cool the mortar between firings. LOL

@RK1Hatty I understand what you are saying with respect to the racers knowing the risks, but when spectators become victims, something has to change.

Looks like a hand reached out and gave him a drink when night fell. Anyone who can climb like this is head and shoulders above any climber I've seen, plain and simple. Those of us who have done some rock-climbing know that climbing straight up for 100 ft. is difficult enough, but this guy? Un...

We've been aboard the 145 a few times on short hauls. It's is a nice little plane! Quieter and more comfortable than the big cattle-haulers like the 767.

What you say is true, but as soon as the angle of the wings got past a certain point, aerodynamics were lost. Consequently, the wings lost lift and down he went.

Poor guy!

As long as there's a cruise line for the kids, I'm happy. Keeps them off the other cruise lines.

We are getting a brief but fascinating glimpse into the mind of a sociopath in his formative stages. Richard's attempt at to cast blame on the other boy and his lack of remorse are vivid illustrations of his sociopathic tendencies. He says he is "probably" finished with bullying. I doubt it. Hi...
