Any idea why this project failed?

I looked at this airplane yesterday! Stainless steel instead of the usual aluminum. I’m sure THAT was easy to fabricate.

Thinking about an ultralight but it seems risky? Look no further… two engines! It would sound cool too! Sun-in-Fun had it all this year.

How about this C130 on skis?! What a mission the New Your Air Guard must have. And what are those red canisters by the rear door? There’s no telling what you will see at Sun-in-Fun.

It is! I’ll try and post a picture of the engine. A small radial really changes a plain old RV-8 into something even cooler. I’m going to find out more about the engine. It sure has a lot of applications in the homebuilt world.

Well, if you’re going to have an RV-8, it might as well be an RV-8R. Sun-in-Fun fun stuff.
