just out of curiousity someone on here has to own an airplane somewhere....my uncle is just finishing up his...hes got a 2 seater regular airplane with a mazda rx-8 rotary engine (brand new from mazda) that he is just finishing up....i cant wait to go out in it when its all said and done and hopefully in a couple years i will be able to afford a kit for one...i think itd be awesome to just be able to keep an airplane in your back yard and take it out whenever....pictures are welcome as well

I don't own an airplane but I am a certified A&P Mechanic. I am working for Aero Associates here in Tallahassee. I know a lot of people that fly though. My future brother in-law's stepdad owns a Long EZ experimental plane. It's cool as hell.

i dont own a plane but as my login name says im a pilot and have been since i was 15, ive flown and have endorsements for many aircraft.
personally im not much of a fan of the longeze, look cool and reasonably quick, but canards are notoriously unstable, and you seen that nose wheel leg, ive seem beefier match sticks:P im a fan of the Rans S12s personally, its an americal pusher type, visibility out of these things is frieken awsome. any of you been to oshkosh? would be an awsome spectical to see. -------------------- ST205 Group A Rallye GT-Four, #61 of 77............600hp GT3582r

 I bet i could pick up more chicks in a helicopter than in a celica
