In the United States the homebuilt aircraft can be licensed under FAA as experimental if the owner has done at least 51% of the work building it.

The materials most commonly used are wood, Sitka and Douglas fir are considered best. Metal, Composite made of cloth and strength materials like fiberglass and wood/composite mixed.

Sasquatch and a Homebuilt RV6A
A Tall Tale
Out in a remote place in Idaho my husband and I have a little cabin. Our income comes from doing Squidoo and other Internet stuff. We have about 20 acres and have 5 campers set up for others to live in who want to join us. Two are already filled with my mother-in-law and my sister who decided to leave the rat race and live an independent life with us. Each person that joins us needs to have an independence income. Either something they already have or we will teach them how to do it. Also each person needs to have some type of ministry that helps others. They can help us with our ministry or have something else.Where we live is quite remote so we were pretty surprised when a small aircraft buzzed our compound. Being a pilot myself I knew that this aircraft wasn't the typical Cessna or tail dragger. The plane kept circling and finally moved its circles elsewhere but it seems to be hunting for something on the ground.
This happened several days in a row and being curious I pedaled my bike to the closest airstrip that was about 10 miles away. This airstrip was just a dirt runway where a few locals liked to take off from it and I had plans of getting back into flying myself and using it some day.
Coming to the airstrip I noticed a couple of vehicles parked there so waited to see who would land. I have left home in the late afternoon to better catch anyone that might be quitting for the day and be landing their plane. I waited for an about an hour before noticing a plane coming in. Sure enough it was the one that had been buzzing our place. When it landed two men got out and came toward me and I walked over and introduced myself. I admired their plane and found out that it was a Homebuilt RV6A, which was really cool. We talked aircraft for awhile before getting on the subject of what they were doing in the area.
Come to find out they were hunting for bigfoot for the History Channel. There were many reports of these big hairy elusive creatures in our area and they were using a special camera that would pick out heat from large creatures. They wanted to see if they could find any before sending out a filming crew. Our compound made the camera light up so they would circle until they realized that it was people below and not the creatures they were looking for.
I found all this quite interesting and we talked at length about the program. I had seen a few of their bigfoot videos and hoped they would find something in our area. They gave me their card and told me to let them know if I ever saw anything. So far they haven't had any luck. I thanked them for their time and headed back home. Now I would be on the look out and hoped I could have something to report and bring them back to our area again. It would be fun to have the History Channel crew doing a documentary in our back yard.
I am writing to you in behalf of your Heavenly Father. He is seeking you like a lost sheep. You remember the Bible story? It is about a shepherd who has 100 sheep. But when he brings the sheep home one night, one is missing. He then leaves the 99 sheep and goes out into the wilderness until he finds that lost sheep.
In this parable the shepherd goes out to search for the one lost sheep-the very least that can be numbered. So if there had been but one lost soul, Christ would have died for that one. To read more click Lost Sheep
