Monster Twin Turbo Duramax diesel amphibious airplane in progress.

One man, one diesel, one wild idea. Why be normal? This channel follows the full journey of building a homebuilt composite airplane — and powering it with something different: a modified diesel engine paired with a custom gear-reduction PSRU. From composite airframe construction to the nuts-and-bolts engineering of adapting an automotive diesel for flight, you’ll see it all. If you're into experimental aviation, custom powerplant mods, or just want to see what happens when curiosity meets craftsmanship, you're in the right place. Why a diesel? Diesel engines offer impressive fuel efficiency, better torque at lower RPMs, and can run on Jet-A and diesel fuel — both of which are more widely available and often cheaper than Avgas. But getting one to fly takes serious engineering. That’s where this adventure begins. Expect weekly build updates, engine test footage, technical breakdowns, and a behind-the-scenes look at every success, snag, and sketchy moment in the shop. ✈️ Subscribe and follow along — because this build is anything but standard.
