Fundamentals of Tailwheel Flying
-- Our latest video project is an instructional video for airplane pilots. This program will be a one-hour, in-depth look at the special techniques required to safely fly airplanes with a landing gear configuration found on certain sport airplanes, aerobatic planes and vintage/antique aircraft. Many of these airplanes have two large main wheels and a much smaller wheel under the tail, and are often called "taildraggers." Because of the unique handling characteristics of these airplanes, they require some special training -- training which is not readily available anymore. Our goal is to create the finest training aid available for these unique airplanes (next to a real, live instructor.) The video will feature extensive in-cockpit and aerial footage, and descriptive narration which will explain the finer points of handling a tailwheel-equipped airplane. This video is in post-production.

RV Builder Basics, Vol. 1: Getting Started -- Van's Aircraft's "RV" series of aircraft is the most popular kit-built aircraft design in the world, thanks to superior performance, sleek looks, excellent kit quality, and legendary builder support. This DVD takes RV builders (and prospective builders) through the early stages of construction, including setting up your shop; an introduction to sheet-metal tools; construction standards and practices; reading blueprints and plans; how to get help, and much more. This video provides you with the guidance you need to get started on one of the biggest and most fun projects of your life. This video is now available at: HomebuilderVideos.com

RV Builder Basics, Vol. 2: Attaching the Wings and Tail -- Building a Van's RV-series airplane (or any other homebuilt airplane, for that matter) involves a lot of routine tasks, and also some tasks that will forever affect the way your completed airplane flies. This video will help you accomplish a couple of the really critical jobs: Getting the wings and tail mounted as perfectly as possible. This video is in post-production.

WWII Oral Histories -- In partnership with the Veterans History Project (VHP), a U.S. Library of Congress program, we conduct videotaped interviews of military veterans. This will be an ongoing project in the years ahead. Our nation is losing thousands of WWII veterans each day, and it's important that their stories not be lost. If you know of a veteran who has a story to tell, please let us know. Thank you for helping us to preserve our nation's history.
