Styrofoam, Fiberglass, and Metal
According to experts on the Long-EZ, the plane is not manufactured by a single company. Instead, people purchase plans and construct their own planes out of Styrofoam, fiberglass, and metal. It can cruise at nearly 200 mph thanks to its rear propeller and front wing. Denver, according to experts, purchased the plane on the used-plane market. Denver’s plane was later discovered to be designed by Elbert “Burt” Rutan, who is best known for designing the long-winged Voyager, the first airplane to fly around the world without refueling.

I’ll Be Back Soon
It’s unclear whether Denver was aware of any of this information about the plane’s history, but it’s clear that he expected to return soon. Denver told people at the airport before boarding his nearly 10-year-old plane that he had enough fuel for an hour or so in the air. He even left his Porsche with the top down in the parking lot, presumably expecting to return in a short time. Denver’s body was described as “badly mangled” by Coast Guard officials. Fingerprints on file in Colorado we’re used to identifying it.
