Inspiration from the highest level

I've just finished reading the book below.

It is available for download from Blurb - I had many problems getting it to work BTW but converted it into a PDF in the end and put it on my iPad.

It is 531 pages! But mostly lots of photos and small bits of text - almost like a blog (but less wordy than mine!).

Very interesting to see a modern way to build a composite aircraft. Much less work and mess by using CNC machines to make molds.

The whole airframe - minus the engine - weighs about 150kg but has a VNE of 400 knots! It shows what is possible with carbon fibre structures.

Very inspiring project, what is possible with hard work and vision.
