    You may or may not agree with Rutan's ideas but man, you gotta give it to him.. he's certainly got a LOT of them! My god, what a fertile mind!

        Well Matt, I'd have to say that Rutan's designs are almost always... shall we say, unusual, but ugly?

        Back to the form following function debate I guess.

        Sort of neat looking and it would be neat if it worked out for them...

        Ugly? LOL.. that thread is already open

            Burt Rutan

            FERTILE? This guy is so far outside the box in his designs its scarey.
            If nothing else you have to give him credit for "original thinking"

              With 600 hrs of EZ time, I can vouch for the wonderful results of his drafting pen and test programs. And thank heavens for his fearless brother -- now testing rocket-powered Long EZ! Peas
