I have a fascination with things that fly too..ever since my dad use to make gliders out of scrap polystyrene for me as a boy. They flew beautifully..up to a metre wingspan. He used to spend what seemed like hours in the garage at night shaping them. Rubber band powered bi-planes too. On the field with a hand drill winding them up. Little bit of fairy liquid on the rubber. Those were the days..70’s. I’m totally anti war but I have to say the Spitfire is one of the most beautiful aircraft ever made. I’m half tempted to buy something like an ‘Parrot Disco’ - used to be over a grand..now around £ 350..I love the idea of fpv flying.. no doubt more fun that a noisey quadcopter.
I believe they’ve come up with a new material for plane bodies..I think they had to work at for a while as this new material wasn’t as good with lighting strikes..Lighter and stronger than the mm thick aluminium they used to use..

; )



Why does the hum of a light aircraft on a summers day make everything seem complete?
