Is that a Goat?

I will always click the star icon for Futurama references. Always.

Man, I love this blog. The first rule of Flight Club is to talk about Flight Club all the f'ing time until somebody hits you.

Ahahahaha. "Grand Funk Railroad paved the way for Jefferson Airplane, which cleared the way for Jefferson Starship. The stage was now set for the Alan Parsons Project, which I believe was some sort of hovercraft."

The P.180 has tiny, stubby wings because all three (the canard, the main wing, and the horizontal stab) all generate lift.

I thought this headline said "Miatas" and I was all "FUCK YEAH!"

Many of the Locost builds/build discussions I've seen have demonstrated some impressively high-quality engineering and fabrication chops.

Hee hee, just a bit...

That negative-g push at the top of the initial climb-out would have you blowing what's left of your kidneys out of your nostrils for the rest of the flight. No, thank you. I'd rather not learn what my own balls taste like.

Because it's full of gas and you're holding a rocket launcher? It's like you've never even played Grand Theft Auto.
