Everyone knows that Blanka is the best for destroying cars

My first job when I was 16 was at the local rural airport (Almont, MI) The owner bought a Stearman for giving rides and just for the fun of having a huge Stearman.

I have been on so many Stearman rides that I don't even remember half of them! But I can tell you that thing is HUGE! We used to buzz my house every time…

If that was my plane I would kick that guy out and never let him in it again. That might be the worst (successful) landing i have ever seen.

You can get your private pilot license for $7000. http://www.sunstateaviation.com/sport-pilot-li…

I am with you on that one. It is foam. You can make it look like whatever you want. Why didn't you make it look like one of those smushed Lamborghini or Ferrari's?

I am sure there is something between let the government have all your money and hiring Chinese contractors.

1st Gear - Why is it that every time there is a "Crisis" the solution that EVERYONE goes to is Increase Taxes!?!?

I don't disagree with anything you are saying. But do you think we would be having this much trouble with the jihadists if our response to attacks on our people, or allies was met with firmness rather than backing down from every threat?

Islamic Jihadists have been around for a very long time. They used to be afraid…

I agree that it is what should happen and what the Navy would want to happen. But our current Commander in Chief has shown that when our people, allies and interests are attacked we do nothing. Perhaps send a drone in to blow up a random place that might have a bad guy. That is not something that our enemies are…

Obama's Red Line with Syria about not killing civilians with chemical weapons or we will act. 2 days later Syria killed a bunch of them and he did nothing.

Do you really think that is what will happen now? The way our country is currently run, I would be willing to bet our current leaders would chalk it up to a freak accident or something.

Maybe I am confused... the Auto Show hasn't even started yet. Kickoff is Friday and it runs until Jan. 25....

What I want to know is how do I leave the Firefall group? I get spammed with event messages!

I met a guy that built one with a t62 Turbine in it. He also built his own 6 blade rotor. Coolest machine I ever saw. Have you ever seen the http://www.helicycle.com/ ?

The question of course is were they design flaws, homebuilder errors, or pilot error? That was a cool little chopper. I almost bought one, even visited the factory.

That looks a lot like the swash design from the Revolution 500 homebuilt from the 90's

That is pretty amazing. I have had a similar swash link failure on my RC Helicopters and it is almost impossible to keep it in the air when that happens.

In what universe is 10 weeks a few?

I mentioned this on the last article about Local Motors.

I would LOVE for them to have a base chassis that you could put your OWN design for a body on. They supply the mounting point locations and you mix it up on your 3d Cad program or Mudbox or whatever 3D design program you use, drop it on a USB drive and hand it…

Holy F1 Steering Wheel Batman!
