Old technology.... Tommy Chong and Cheech Marin hold the patent from the 80's.

There doesn't seem to have been any movement on that project in like 10 years, and I'm not convinced that anything was ever built. The completed planes they show are standard V-twins.

I think that if hemp polymers were all that good, they'd have a structure completed by now.

....if only Raptor had been built out of hemp - it would have been stronger and less expensive!
