How did you know I have been researching home building a Cloudhopper for a few years?

 

Wasn't this thread about a airplane?.

 

I think the important part is defying the force of gravity for a while. But what do I know, I only leave the ground occasionally in the short bus. It's fun, does that qualify as a flight ?

 

Uncontrolled flight at best Sam, unless you can do something really neat like an aileron roll or an outside loop, ever tried?

 

I did a stall in my landcruser, with the 454 stuffed in there, was a tad front heavy. Dont you wish you were there, we had her wide open to make the crest, and were flying for a while, till she switched ends, which side do you think ended up ?

 

Hmmm, let me guess, the side you didn't want to end up "up"?

 

Nope, came straight down, landed on bumper kinda balanced there, long enough for us to look at each other with that look, like, which way we going???When it fell back on the rubber, correct side down. Think I was a little more careful after that ??

 

Do you keep a fresh pair in the car now? ("First you say it.... Then you do it")

 

Come on Doc, we all know that there are a few situations where you do it, and then you say it. Speaking of "it", ever have a passenger with a potty emergency?

 

Only once right after we lifted off... drifted about 100 ft and put down... waited.... re-added ballast (passenger)... flew on. woman in her 70s... porta-potty right off the taxiway saved her.
