The air was very smooth and visibility fantastic. Bruce claims his landings weren't perfect but they were much better than the aluminum tube oneels on the way here. Making us proud. TriQ200 ~15 hrs

That's crazy. It looks like a T-38 on the ground and an insect in the air.

cockpit size
Jerry Marstall <jnmarstall@...>
Like shoes, cockpits come in all sizes. Some wore blisters, others would accommodate inserts. J

A good story of adapting your environment to fit you, then you adapting to fit your environment, Jerry. How in the world did you ever fit into those air force shoeboxes???

Re: Waddelow wing, and canard

Somewhere around here I have a tape of a telephone conversation I had with Tom Jewett over how to get my 6’ 6” self into the cockpit he had advertised as accepting two people 6’8”, 250lbs ea. Being neither, I still couldn’t get into it. With his generous advice, I was able to square off the canopy, add 2” to the turtleback height, slip the base of the seat toward the seat tank, and hoist my rudder pedals off of the canard. Now it only takes a shoehorn to get in, instead of a compactor. Fortunately as time as passed, I have misplaced 2.25” in height. Life is good. Jerry

Re: Waddelow wing, and canard
I met Tom Jewett when I got a ride in the factory Q2 with Revemaster engine about a year before he died in "Big Bird"'off the end of the runway in Mojave. He was the brains behind QAC and one hell of a nice guy! If he hadn't died Quickie Aircraft might have survived.
Gene was a pain in the ass and hard to deal with. It was no surprise when QAC went down the tubes, even though he had Scott Swing and his dad working for him. Jim Patillo N46JP Q200

As I recall/understand it, Marc Waddelow passed away in his kitchen
when he discharged a halon fire extinguisher in a confined place. Really sad, he
was a smart young man.
I understand that Sheehan is still alive and kicking in Mojave. Tom Jewett
was killed in Big Bird, a non-Quickie type aircraft that he was hoping to fly
around the world in. It broke up in flight.

Waddelow wing, and canard
norm_parm@...
Does anyone have the drawings, construction info for the Waddelow wings, and canard? I am rebuilding a damaged Q-200, changing to Tri-Q, and am considering the Waddelow wings.

Re: Back at it once again...
Not to be contrary Mike but I regularly slip my Q200 on final if I'm high and fast. It's like an elevator ride and totally controllable. I just slip it with the nose deck a little high and round it out befoiore touch down.
I've entered base to final many times at 150k close up and had no issues. As I said in a previous post, I notice the speed brake really helps to shorten roll outs. Jim N46JP Q200

Re: Back at it once again...
I found that slipping a Q200 was very inneffective. But pulling up into a stall really increases the drag and looses altitude fast! So now if I'm high and fast, I pull up to stall or near stall.
