Yeah I'll give it a shot. She'll be right mate.

Afterall, people probably thought Wilbur & Orville, Yeager etc were crazy at what they attempted to do.....

Maybe not good as a C209, but still probably better than a Retard Vehicle

That chopper even sounds like an R22 engaging. They are 90% of the way there.

Thems fighting words!

There may be 7000 + Retard vehicle Owners tracing your IP as we speak!

If either of those things get to test flying at all......Australia is a safe distance to watch from. Or beyond 5 miles most likely!

Well, the Maoris invented the BK117 and LTS101 engine, so anything is possible

This aircraft is completely detachable!
I want one!

Wings and tail are made of aluminium ****!

Maybe not!

Dr

PS: Just replayed the video
"aluminium sheet"!
. Bit of an accent thing going there.

I think the reporters comment "he has no experience in aviation engineering" was stating the obvious!

I'll avoid the African continent until the test-flying program is complete. That shouldn't be too long.

“This is the outcome of an extensive 6 months research on the internet”
and
“A bit of it was a bit of reinventing the wheel, not really looking and trying to copy”
