Brief Info:
The Boredom Fighter is a unique custom (or homebuilt) aircraft constructed entirely from wood. Actually, there's quite a number of steel fittings, but generally, it's all wood. The usual engine is the trusty Continental A-65 (C-65) but Subarus and larger Continentals have been successfully installed.
The flying characteristics of this aircraft are just pure fun. No, it's not a great cross-country machine, but there is no better for chasing the cows and watching the world go by. Pure flying fun!
As with any custom aircraft, half the fun is just building the machine. Average build times are 4-5 years. There is one individual building who's beyond 10 years but that's another story. Now, if you're not too fond of sawdust, then maybe this is not the project for you. On the other hand, if the thought of working with cold metal on a winter night brings shivers, then woodworking may just be your thing!
Below is an example of the typical construction plans. Most sheets are easy to read and understand with minimal interpretation. Format is 11" x 17" with full size wing rib drawings.
In addition to the full size wing rib drawings, plot points are provided to allow generation of the NACA 4412 airfoil on your own plotter.
At right is a drawing representing the wing assembly details. You will notice pencil markings and notes from actual construction. NOTE: This is a sample and not intended for actual assembly use.
The drawing representation itself is a compilation of several scanned images so some of the butt lines may not match exactly.
At right is a representation of a typical steel fitting, in this case, the lower, forward landing gear mount. Most fittings are constructed from 4130 Chrome-moly flat sheet with minimal welding.
