We spend a lot of time on the computer with CAD and yes, we still use the
drawing board at times. We create special aircraft designs with many
associated custom products, all from scratch. If you have come to view
several new Flying Flea aircraft conceptual configurations and are interested
in the optimal F5Family of airfoils that were especially designed to enhance
the Flying Flea performance and safety ........You have come to the right place.

Chris's comments: The photos are of the HM290 built by Jack Johnson of Edmonton. It had a 1500 cc
VW engine. It would cruise at 90 mph. It had a minimum speed of 18 mph at high power and very high
angle of attack. He flew it for many hours when one day it was burned in a grass field fire. Jack said it
was easy to get into a Dutch Roll condition - very scary! I propose bungees to increase sideways stick
pressure. Someone should test this out. I have the sketches for whoever would like to try it.
