The best way to network with other builders.
It couldn't be easier
Welcome to KitplaneBuilders.com a brand new community platform our launch, Summer 2020 cutting edge technology
Our brand new community platform is cutting edge, modern & easy to use!
Conversations, not pages
Why break conversations into awkward and arbitrary pages, where you have to constantly find the Next Page button? We’ve replaced all that with the power of just-in-time loading. Want to read more? Keep scrolling down.
Dynamic notifications
When someone quotes your post, we’ll notify you. When someone mentions your @name, we’ll notify you. When someone replies to your post… well, you get the idea. And if you’re not around, we’ll email you, too.
Simple, but with context
KitplaneBuilders.com Community is a simple, flat forum, where replies flow down the page in a line. Expand context at the bottom and top of each post, and also in quotes, to reveal the full conversation without losing your place.
Born mobile, born to touch
KitplaneBuilders.com was designed for high resolution touch devices, with a built-in mobile layout. Read or post from your laptop, tablet, and phone in your browser of choice
Links automatically expand
Want to share a cool link you found? Just paste it in on a single line and we’ll make it awesome. Links to Wikipedia, YouTube, Amazon, Twitter, Flickr and hundreds of other popular websites automatically expand to provide additional context and information.

About me
Passionate about technology aviation succeeding building
I'm a programmer specializing in web development with 15 years experience. I've had a passion for aviation since I was a young and have always been interested in building an aircraft and flying it.
After searching the Internet for aircraft builder communities, the only ones I found were very old and antiquated Bulletin Boards style solutions.
Realizing there could be a much better solution, I decided to create this site to help others who are seeking the same. I hope you find it useful.

Why build the community
Technology has changed a lot since the old days of bulletin boards. Leveraging this new technology enables dynamic community platforms to be built providing its members the ability to easily network and communicate. Features enable users to efficiently find information, watch, track, or follow conversations, real-time notifications, dynamically generated contributor badges, easily flag unwanted content by community members and much, much more.
As a developer I wanted to leverage this technology and provide a customized community specifically designed for amateur aircraft builders.
Site Overview
Provide a comprehensive community solution to enable amateur aircraft builders to easily network and find information to make educated decisions about starting, building and more importantly, finishing their aircaft build.
Become a valuable resource for all future and existing amateur aircraft builders everywhere!
