Converting my 1g Eclipse into an airplane

[constant_proj21]

I just saw this rock....whoever designed it must have intended it to be an airplane. Just look at the lines!

Anyone know where i can have wings made for it?

But good luck dude...

The fact we're being trolled is obvious.

I mean seriously, aside from everything else - his family has aviation background because of relatives who were baggage handlers.


This was an epic trolling though.

 

[tenn-gsx]

Nothing epic about it. That was obvious from the jump. Welding wings onto doors of a 1g that is THAT clean? Come on man. Too easy to spot to be epic.

 

[RipperXX]

Seriously, end yourself.










But give me your car first.

OP, this thread has been going around to a lot of boards today and i must say it's pretty funny. You need to google Mizar Air car and see what you find. hell i'll do it for you.

The last line in that description is worth special attention. For in late 1973, Smolinski and Blake climbed aboard the Mizar prototype one last time and powered up the engines. No one knows what went on in the cockpit of the Mizar as it rolled down the runway during takeoff. But what is known is that very shortly after they left the ground, the \"self locking high-strength pins\" gave way and the flying car developers found themselves driving through the Southern California sky in a suddenly wingless, and decidedly non-airworthy, Ford Pinto.

The tragic death of the two principal developers resulted in the end of the Mizar project. So, still, the world awaits the first practical flying car. But there is always another one looming on the horizon, ready to take off from the technology underground and fly into the big time.

the mizar was supposed to be available with a parachute safety system, apparently the prototype didn't have it, oops.




oh and to say that your family has aviation experience because your uncles are baggage handlers? :: thats like saying "my wife is a receptionist for a veterenarian so therefore i have brain surgery experience"

 

[red_devil]

Good luck using paint and your expericanced baggage hanglers to do the job right

You would have to make the whole thing out of carbon fiber, a massive wing span, and a powerful motor to even get this thing to get any air at all. Then worry about the brick of a fuselage you will have. Leave the poor DSM alone and buy a small plane before you kill yourself.

made a good laugh though....

[joe sobo]

this has got to be one of the most hilarious threads that a dsmer has EVER posted.................if not, someone point me to better ones.
the worse part is that we are all laughing, but just look at all the typing that he had to do to start this thread.
what ever you are smoking, i want so to share with pj91gsx

 

[BLK95TA]

oh yea, you can also just buy a delorean and have it converted to fly for only $39,999.95

Is that your black 1Gb in the picture with the wings? If so why would you want to turn that into an airplane? Thats a clean whip.

 

[cano86]

Someone's been paying attention to the rumors of the 2012 tragedy, about the world going to an end. At least he's trying to fly he's way out of it.

 

[BLK95TA]

i didn't even notice the wings photoshopped on the side of the car, haha. looks like chitty chitty bang bang.

Indeed.

Though I am a little dissapointed in the gullibility of some of our members...

 

[cano86]

BTW. When its done please alert the News. That way there won't be panic about a new UFO.

a UFO would indicate a flying object. I'm thinking it'd be more like a UCO, unidetified crashing object.

 

[Red97Eclipseboy]

Honestly, guys... I sort of know this guy from meets and cruises. He's actually serious. People just look at him like WTF He's talked about this for a while now. Of course, he's being a dipshit for even sharing this like he'll do anything with his "plans". I'll be sure not to talk to this noob at meets this spring.

 

[thatblondechik]

Wait...he's serious? You're shittin' me right?

 

[BigBeans]

Wait...he's serious? You're shittin' me right?

I'm pretty sure this is a serious plan.

If the guy has been talking about it for awhile at meets, than this isn't a joke by a bored DSMer.

 

[Red97Eclipseboy]

Wait...he's serious? You're shittin' me right?

Of course he's not going to do anything towards it. I'm just saying he's talked about this before to people. And I can't believe he made this thread.

I'm pretty sure this is a serious plan.

If the guy has been talking about it for awhile at meets, than this isn't a joke by a bored DSMer.

He's is serious; but of course all talk.

Not trying to be a dick, but, didnt you attempt a 5 speed swap and give up half way? And now you are gonna swap a car to a car-plane?

To give this noob some credit, he did finish the swap. I saw his old 2g in manual-form. But, you're right; he's being an ass-hat. Lol!

 

[rich3389]

Well if you do finish this succesfully, can you mkae a kit for me so I can put this on my newly purchased 91 talon tsi awd? How are you planning on getting that thing propelled? A jet or propellers?

 

[eclipse_16g]

hahaha... i mean i come with crazy ideas every once in a while and later think wtf was i thinking, but this one is just crazy...

 

[91 TSi GP]

I think its funny that he hasnt posted since his initial post, he must be busy making wings!

 

[slo-rst-laser]

...............I'm speechless, I'm not going to say anything bad like you requested, but, atleast buy an beat up dsm before you ruin your clean car.
