I don't know how many of my not-aviation-savvy friends have said to 

me about my Kitfox, "Where's the rubber band?"

10/24/06 news flash - the Daily Telegraph



- Bungie powered 20 Foot wingspan plane with goal of 3000 ft - traveled 6 feet backwards in first (and only) flight attempt.



The plane may become part of an exhibition about the importance of failure as an essential process of development.

I sure wouldn't want the wind up job! 

I certainly wound not criticize him  though if he did hand wind the prop..... I'd consider him a nut-case.
