Wanna Host a Fly-in?

quickheads
 

Hey All,
Several of you told me that you'd be interested in hosting a Tandem Wing event in 2011. As you've gathered, I'm trying to gather all of the information for these events so that I can post the Schedule on the QBA website.

I also wanted to offer you the following support: If you can host an event (Provide an adequate runway and a secure hanger for a weekend), I can help you locate dining facilities, negotiate lodging rates, and fuel rates, and provide door prizes including QBA T-shirts, coffee mugs, award trophies, etc.

So no more excuses, if you're interested in hosting an event, please contact me offlist so that we can get something set up.

http://www.quickheads.com/Contact-Me/Dan-Yager.html

Again I want to get out and see a lot more of you guys this year! Mostly so I can steal ideas for my own project! LOL!

An event here on the East Coast would be nice! (Or the UK maybe?) Hmmm?

Warm regards,
Dan Yager

The Southern Illinois Field of Dreams

The Field of Dreams Tandem Wing Fly-in will be hosted by Sam Hoskins this year in his home state of Illinois!

Williamson County Airport, Marion, IL
http://www.airnav.com/airport/KMWA

The weekend AFTER Labor Day. September 9-11, 2011

Sam is putting a blog together for the event:
http://southernillinoisfieldofdreams.blogspot.com/

There are many more details to follow, but for now, block out the dates on your calendar, cause you know where to be! I look forward to seeing some new faces this year!

I'll put the full list of 2011 Tandem Wing Fly-ins in the next issue of Q-talk, and link to the individual events pages from the QBA website!

So stay tuned!

Warm regards,
Dan Yager

Trailer

Larry Severson
 

I am currently home with Bronchitis. As a result I messed up. 3 people asked for trailer pictures. I sent them to Hawkdog and Martin, but I lost the other request.

Also, the trailer is currently empty. When I am able to get back to CNO, I will be able to get specific construction details pictures of the trailer. The person who built it had been planning to sell them, but he died in early 1985. It is definitely the only way to transport a Q2, unless you love frustration and hard work.

Sweet. That one sounds very cool.

My trailer was specifically designed for the Q2. The plane is rolled
into the trailer arms. The arms are then clamped onto the canard. The
tail is removed. The plane is then rotated upward exposing a rest
designed to hold the tail. Once the tail section has been clamped on,
the plane is ready to travel. It can take as little as 15 minutes to
load or off load the plane. The engine stays on.

Same old crap sounds familiar. Corporate doesn't fix problems they just keep whipping you thinking that will squeak out an extra shilling. But hey they paid me to keep doing it the same way for years and I applied for the job. So guess I am partly responsible. Sammy are you going to build another plane?

It is wonderful. Especially when I talk to folks at the company I used to
work for. I could walk in the door there and it would be the same old crap.

Re: Trailer configuration

Larry Severson
 

Yes, I have one in my hanger. It has been used to transport Q2 planes
from both Oregon and Arizona to California. I have also transported a
triQ, but it was a hassle because the nose gear had to be removed first.
I am willing to sell or rent it. I can send a PDF with pictures on
planes on the trailer to anyone interested.

With the motor off, rear slightly raised, Q2 or Q200 fits easily within
the 8' 6" (102 inch) US national standard. The national standard is for
commercial vehicles but I don't think any state limits private vehicle
width to less than this.

I believe some people have moved Qs short distances with the motor on by
raising the rear of the fuselage high in the air.

I don't have it handy or I'd send it, but maybe someone else has it
handy.

The 3/4 view of the fluid dynamic coloring of the Q might look pretty
slick.
A quick Google for it turned up this image, but it's only a side-view,
not
the 3/4 view.
