We always concern ourselves with weight. This weighs 800 kgs or 1763 lbs.  A Cessna 150 weighs 985 lbs.

By the opening of the film, I thought they were taking that stuff to the junk yard.

That is where it will end up ... the good news for the potential pilot is that it wouldn't start.  About all that will do is taxi. I don't see it getting off the ground.

I think he now works for Boeing.

No, but he's a candidate for outsourcing a major subassembly if he can avoid troublesome unions.

I am considering this as a scale project for entry at the Nat's this summer ... the video is proof for scale. I wonder if I can get plans?
