Get your flying pants on. You do have flying pants, don't you?

Anyhow, it's the 21st century, and I have a son on the verge of turning 10 (10?! holy crap). Definitely time to start some advanced father/son projects. But I'm a project-based worker anyhow, and a geek to boot. So this father/son project will be an agile project and have a blog.

What is this project?

For Christmas, Noah got a Flywheels XPV. It's a hunk of foam with 2 fans and a remote control. It's neat. But we decided we could do better. So we're going to be building our very own from-scratch flying machine.

As mentioned above, there's a blog. It's all explained there. So I hereby announce FlyingPants.org.

And yes, it completely goes against my own point about syndicating columnists instead of running special-purpose blogs. I'm allowed to change my mind.
