These are photo's of the Double Eagle™ by L. E. Milholland. This aircraft is now complete. Photo's by Leonard Milholland and Gail Simmons Gibson, (his daughter). This prototype will be shown at Oshkosh in 2003. The design goal was exceeded bring this aircraft dry weight in at 385 lbs (airframe and engine) thus allowing for two large people, and a full 10 gallon fuel load under the 900 lbs gross load.
"I would ask that builders considering the Double Eagle start with the engine, the design is simple, and unlikely to change in any massive way, whereas the airframe may undergo a number of changes prior to plans release. The Double Eagle uses a full VW engine, with modified cylinders producing a useful power of roughly 60 HP." Leonard Milholland.
