Walter,
Thank you very much for your kind words!
Keith,
We have thought about making the entire Light weight Jag, but I have too many other projects in the Skunkworks right now. If all goes well, one of them will keep me busy for a long, long time--certainly for the foreseeable future.
Maricopa,
The whole thing weighs just slightly less than the original tube chassis--but it is 300% stiffer. We traded weight for stiffness. It certainly was an immense undertaking...but not nearly as big as the one I am working on right now. We just keep reaching for the stars. Sometimes I can't believe I am paid to do what we do! Don't let anyone tell you it can't be done.
Here are my two favorite quotes from Robert Heinlein.
"Everything is theoretically impossible, until it is done."
"One could write a history of science in reverse by assembling the solemn pronouncements of highest authority about what could not be done and could never happen."
