Posts made past 02:30PM 12/30/24 won't be on the new site!

We are in the final stages of resolving the issues with the forums move to the new location. After talking with tech support, the only solution was to send him a copy of all the images. This will take time - but we know the fix SO it's only a matter of time now.

Thanks again for your patience,

  • LA Times story on Mojave feat. Wildfire update

    By day, Justin Gillen works on a satellite-launching aircraft with a wingspan longer than a football field.


    Statler, who drives up to Mojave on Saturdays from Santa Clarita, estimates the project has eaten up $200,000 over the years. He hopes to race it at next September’s renowned Reno air races.


    “It’s one of those things you get into and you think, ‘What have I done?’” Statler said. “But it’s fun.”

    NEXT YEAR????? Someone pinch me.... Interesting how we know so much about this project, but yet so little. I doubt it will race in 2018, HOPES UP VERY HIGH, but 2019 is more reasonable. Wish there were more pictures...

    Thanks for posting, things just got A LOT more interesting people!!!
