About 25% of new general aviation aircraft in the USA are home built, but not from junkyard parts.

I admire this guy and his don’t quit can do attitude.

Interesting propeller. Can that thing thrash the air with enough authority to get airborne?

This stunt sounds like it could come to a bad end-the guy sounds a bit eccentric...

I admire the guy's tenacity. But a few lines from the article give me a bit of concern...

"... has even sought professional advice for flying"

Well I would hope so. How about seeking some professional advice for building too?

"For him the main concern is about landing safely..."
Can't argue with that, although I hope he has a few other concerns about the events prior.

and

"...plans to take off at 90 mph and 10 meters height."

I think when you're 30 feet off the ground, you've already taken off...

If he is Muslim, he might have a future at NASA - if he lives long enough.

” with aviation manuals and YouTube tutorials being his teachers”

If I was his wife no way in hell would I get on a plane that he learned to build on YouTube - just saying. =)

I hate to tell him this but taking off is the easy part. Landing is the hard part unless you have a long runway.

I like it....I wouldn't fly in it but I like it. Hope he intends to install the prop because if he doesn't, that fiance is going to be left standing at the altar.

He should get a large life insurance policy first and put his fiancee as the beneficiary.

I hope both his flight and his marriage are amazing successes and are remembered happily for generations to come.

New engine with twice the HP + “pilot” with 0 hours of flight time who attempts to solo on his FAM-1 = torque roll crash on takeoff.

What do you call a fiancee whose future husband kills himself?
