I'm Building an Airplane from 100-Year-Old Blueprints

 

This video is Part 1 in an ongoing series I'm beginning on my channel documenting the construction of a Pietenpol Air Camper, a wood and fabric homebuilt airplane design from 1929. In this video I find and select my lumber, and begin milling it into fuselage pieces.

 A HUGE thank-you to the Sloan Foundation and Independent Media Initiative (IMI) for making this build possible. Learn more at → https://www.theimi.co/ & https://sloan.org/programs/public-und...
