Airplanes are mechanical hawks. Many people want to be challenged by that method of killing.

Sprawl is killing people, some 300,000 premature deaths annually because of the sprawl sedentary lifestyle, and it is killing our natural environment, scenic vistas, biodiversity, rural towns and much more.

After 9/11 we couldn't have had enough airplanes for the people who were volunteering to go. Now with 9/11 being as far removed as it is, the war being up one day and down the next, it becomes increasingly difficult to get people to go.

Was the heat from fuel from two airplanes sufficient to compromise the steel in that building? (sic) People had said they heard explosions and the buildings came down like we see old buildings in Vegas or in Florida or in other places, implode,

It gives a better 'yardstick' to the kit-builders (people who build their own airplanes). It will feature airplanes more like real people build and fly.

I remember asking my dad, 'Who are the people who design airplanes?' And he said, 'mechanical engineers.' That's what I wanted to do. I never changed my mind.
