thanks again Genghis and Fitter

since researching the matter i now have 2 leads to follow and cant decide what to do. On the one hand, I have manged to obtain

these plans

to build a paramotor from scratch, saving a lot of time and effort designing the damn thing. however, I am struggling to find a source of 4130 chromoly and t6061 alloy in this country - it only seems to be available in america

on the other hand, I have since uncovered a

picture album

and

explanation

detailing how to build a perfectly feasible sub-115kg deregulated aircraft... out of stepladders!!!! I have a friend who is a trainee thruster pilot and knows a thing or two about engineering, and he reckons it would be a brilliant project to occupy a month of the summer holdays, if only we could get some definitive blueprints for the design

are we insane?
