I was browsing with homebuilt for a keyword, and ran into that
delightful web site that features Goat, Bug, and kindred ultralight gliders or as he prefers to think of them, flying chairs. It's not so often you run into free for downloading drawings, in various standards. Drawn beautifully, and which give a distinct impression of being pretty much unbreakable in normal use, and offering a way out in abnormal use (a throw out parachute that lands you tail first, with your back supported). The techniques were recognizable as grown-up versions of how early Rogallos were put together - with crossbolts, sleeves, tangs and gussets - using alloy tube and steel cables. Good on ya, Sandlin! (Wish there was a bill of materials - it would be tempting to buy the materials just for the pleasure of putting one together.) Brian W |
