- Builders who always wanted a warbird but were wary of the costs… have a look at the ScaleBirds P-36 Hawk, a radial-powered, single-seat scale replica of the wartime P-36. Paul Dye puts this nice-flying prototype through its paces.
- Two factory visits this month, starting with James Aircraft, which has been making Van’s RV-specific fiberglass components for years. It’s under new ownership with an eye toward improving its product line. Mark Timney reports.
- Next up is Paul Dye’s visit to Crow Enterprises, maker of custom seatbelt systems for aircraft. It started in the motorsports arena but has expanded to offer very high quality, custom harnesses for homebuilders.
- Still looking for a propeller for your project? LeRoy Cook surveys the current offerings in the propeller market, cutting across both the Experimental and the certified worlds.
- Columnist Ariana Rayment reminds us that enjoying Experimental aircraft is more than just about the building—it’s the chance to fly something of your own making and share it with like-minded aviators in your very own neighborhood. Take this as a prompt to get out of the hangar!
