do you really build flying things...

I wouldn't be so sure. It wasn't such a long time ago that I had the
same astonishment at the idea. Remember, our public education system
and popular culture in general is now designed to weed out and destroy
anything resembling initiative or self dependance. If it ain't store
bought, it's redneck. 12 years of such meticulous brainwashing is VERY
hard to overcome.


i'm not trolling, just curious... jumping off a balcony sounds
dangerous enough to me, let alone flying a homebuilt flying machine...

do you have to have some pro experience or can anyone build such a
thingie...

You don't have to have a pro's advice, though you will want it. Often.
And with pictures.

Anyone CAN build and airplane, though very few WANT to. A lot of people
THINK they want to, until they start trying. It's a tough bear to
wrestle. The page below has a link to a FAQ that'll tell you what you
want to know to get started.
