Still chuckling...


Well, whoever created this page doesn't know that Burt Rutan spells
his name with only one "t", and had he actually designed such a beast,
the props would undoubtably have been pushers.

Burt has to be the most conservative aircraft designer around. He figures
the Wrights got it right the first time and has never seen a good reason to
change a thing. His designs are invariably cloth covered pusher canard
designs, just like the Wright Flyer.
