Mankind always dreamed of flying.
Enter Experimental Aircraft, light aircraft, Bush planes, or STOL planes, etc., as they are called.
These little yet robust and powerful aircraft are causing a revolution in flying.
Since the 50’s experimental aircraft had become the standard in prívate aviation.
And what is more revolutionary is that anyone can build these airplanes at home at a very low cost. Several aircraft kit manufacturers sell aircraft kits for assembly.
These builders can also build your aircraft upon request.
For as little as 50K, you can build
your own experimental aircraft, and start going places any time anywhere and no runaways are need to land them.
In fact, they are build to land at the beach, in the mountains, just anywhere within 500 meters of distance or less.
They are made of aluminium, carbón composites, fiber glass and other materials.
They have a flying range up yo 6 hours and can fly some 6000 miles depending on configuration and can carry 2-4 pax.
The FAA regulates their airworthiness, but a prívate pilot licence is requiered.
The Aircraft Experimental Association, eaa.org, is the entity that manages everything experimental aircraft issues related.
