Stumbled across this website, which describes a form of load-bearing column I’d not seen before.
Like Goodyear’s Airmat, the “Captive Column” looks like it’d be a very lightweight way to build a load bearing structure. Unlike Airmat, the CC looks like something average schmoes could build, using balsa wood, dowel rods and fiberglass (or carbon fiber).

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
What was, (and where can I find info on) the Goodyear Airmat? Was that the stuff they came up with for the “Inflataplane”?
