Welcome to Chapter 132 of the Experimental Aircraft Association.
We are based at the Elkhat, In, airport with our own clubhouse right at the base of the control tower on the north side of the airport. At EAA our goal is to promote general aviation, share our love of flying, educate people on the issues surrounding general aviation, and yes, we even build a few airplanes.
Come out and joins us!
Terrafugia has flown their “roadable” aircraft on March 5th, 2009. Not really a flying car, it is not design to replace the car, but rather to expand the uses of an airplane. The Transition is expected to cost about $190,000 and be available in 2011.. $10,000 fully refundable deposits are being accepted now and a line is forming..
The wings are folded and unfolded electricly and the plane must be on the ground with the engine off to operate the folding motors. The plane is powered by an automotive engine that runs on premium gasoline and features dual controls to allow standard controls for driving and standard controls for flying.

I am looking for a home builder that could re-do the baffling on my RV-7A with an IO 360 engine.
Any help in finding someone will be appreciated
