what've you got to lose? You can get $150,000 coverage instantly. It's not expensive and all you need to do is let me know when you're going to be filiming.

Personally I see it as a good investment.

they guys who make the PUL-10 are working on a tandem version
nurflugel.com is their site
i get the impression that for a homebuilt, a flying wing is a lot easier to get done than something with an empanage or canard
100kts on 3gal/hr:eek:

so if you do need to install an autopilot to combat instability, it will pay itself off fast

Golfer, I'm not interested in your condescension. I said it'd be nice to be able to do stuff like that, sure, but I'm not really interested in the type of low maneuvering with blind corners that it'd require. It's nice to fantasize and watch others, but I'd prefer not to die.

Cool does it have landing gears?
