Build your own plane if you can in Livermore
Bob Stearns spent six years turning a two place Piel Emeranda CP301 into a finished homebuilt aircraft at Livermore Airport. He built in his garage with simple tools and lacquer finish, aims to fly after FAA certification and 50 logged hours, and credits the local Experimental Aircraft Association for guidance while noting the project costs dissuade casual builders.

Quiet Sofia masks unrest in Bulgaria’s capital
In Sofia, under Nevsky Cathedral’s gold domes, discontent simmers though riots remain unlikely. The Bulgarian Communist Party Congress failed to lift living standards, while elites enjoy privileged perks. Public life includes soccer crowds, cafes, and Tricia Nixon’s photos, amid rising prices, shortages, and debates about Western comparisons.
