    is when it’s in an airplane built with your own hands. What’s truly remarkable about homemade aircraft are their great diversity of design. They can take the form of biplanes or ultra lights that aren’t much more than a hang glider with a motor and landing gear. Some are as large as commercially built planes while others look and sound like go-carts with wings. They are remarkable because anyone with some mechanical aptitude and a work ethic can build one. Your basic airplane really isn’t that complicated
