    I'm building an experimental plane. I'm a pilot. I know EXACTLY what I'm talking about. You're talking out of your ass.

    Are you a professional aerospace engineer? No? Than your aircraft has *NOT* been "vetted by the proper people", and may in fact be dangerous to fly.

    Clearly, though passionate about your *HOBBY* , you do NOT know EXACTLY what you are talking about.

    Also, your post is a flame.
