Re: Something like landing gear testing
David J. Gall
Kevin and Damian,
Good points. I suppose that the decision not to foam the runway had something to do with all of these considerations already being known by the powers that be. Hmmm, I wonder how my Quickie will land when I have the eventual flat tire.... David J. Gall

Re: Quickie molds and plug

David , yes we can reverse engineer the shape and bring it into Catia then output into a cnc program to cut it from renboard. Finesse that and use it for a plug etc etc. I see that down the road a peice.

Re: Dumb Question #47
RICHARD GLIMES
What happened to the Taylor Paper Glass process of composite lamination? Did it just die when Molt Taylor died? Laminated Kraft Paper,laminated solid fiber board and 90# liner board make good core material . de Havilland Aircraft left a gold mine of information from their five year of building the`Mosquito bombers. They chemically treated the plywood they used was treated with a fire retardant which you could not sit on fire with a blow torch. Experimental means just that,such construction freedom should be used to develope new ideas and methods,as well as updating old ideas.
