A look back through the history of aircraft, and you will find that the first airplanes built, were by and large, built by experimenters at home. These planes are what we think of as "homebuilts". World War I moved airplanes from the garage to the factory. In 1947 U.S. Congress officially approved the licensing of home built aircraft, subject to a federally regulated inspection program. Homebuilt planes are for education and recreation.

Kit airplanes gained popularity in the 1970's. They come with an engine, the parts, and a huge manual with all the instructions on how to craft your own aircraft. While it can take years to build a kit aircraft, airplane enthusiasts love the challenge and the finished product.
