Hello!

Canards are cool enough as-is, and Perry Mick's www.ductedfan.com was/is absolutely beautiful, but even he decided to convert back to a propellor.

Hi Jon,

 

I agree with you 125%, canards are the coolest aircraft flying homebuilt or otherwise. I am also aware of Perry Mick research on the subject, but my point is (eventhough infantile as it may seem) I want my homebuilt F18 HORNET

Hi all,

I am sorry for bringing this topic to the table one more time, but I feel that we're just not trying hard enough to figure this little problem out. I'm talking of course about "DUCTED FANS". I know, I know it's been tried before with limited success, but it is very hard for me to believed that no one person out there has being able to design a fan, buried in an airframe, mated with a powerplant and make work.

We do have the technology to do this, we have the RENESIS, TONS OF DESIGN SOFTWARE, BRILLIANT HOMEBUILDERS AND EXPERIMENTERS, AND THE INTERNET TO WORK TOGETHER.

So, how about it people. Does anybody has a copy of "LOCKEED MARTINS F35B LIFT FAN BLUEPRINTS"?, its a good starting point.

DREAM-A1

Hi to all, I am new to the forum and dreaming of fabricating my own aircraft. I saw the AERIKS 200 while browsing the internet and fell in love with the design because it reminded me of the sketches I have drawn all over my notebook of my dream airplane.

Does anybody has information on this airplane? The website for the company seems to be out.
