So we all know what "Pocket Bikes" are....What about pocket planes?  How awesome would that be! HAHA...A little mini lancaster with an 8 foot wingspan.  Rocket motors, and the cockpit so small, your knees are banging the dash.....That would be hilarious!

Wouldn't that be considered Aerodynamically unstable?

I wonder how cramped his neck was from having to bend down to fit into the canopy.

Used to be, experimental floats and multis didn't need water and multi ratings, but I read somewhere that this has recently changed.  Can't cite a source, just something I heard.  

On the gripping hand, it looks like centerline training would probably be enough, heh.
