Pretty frustrated with Yahoo Groups -- I can accept that the "bold" parameter was stripped out -- even if it leaves me looking stupid with my "(emphasis added)" comment. But why can't I format my

FWIW: Dave is right, most flying planes were just "built to plans" and flew OK -- actually, most flew great, it was the landing . . . -- anyway, most flew great based on the plans .

Jason, Due to dihedral, the measurement of sweep is not as straightforward as it may at first appear. The plans don't say anything about sweep, they only say to put some reference marks on the

Hi - (Ok, third message to the group today - and sorry about the fionapple alias) What exactly should I find before calling taxi testing successful? I hope to be able to finish in a week or two

Thanx Sam. I did read your site on the auto pilot and point well taken. But with that, who do i believe with the wing sweep then, the plans or the guy that has a mill + hours in type that says

For starters, I'd be happy to do a lot of legwork for the next LVK fly-in. Sorry I haven't contributed more in the past. It's hard to measure the value of participation. I doubt anyone noticed me

No install yet, but thanks for the tips (the threaded-rod hole size probably provides all the necessary play). I'm not convinced I have a problem with braking any more; I'm generally within 3-5' of

Jeff, You and Spud have done wonderful jobs with the FOD Events! Thank you so much! I hope I wasn't negative with any of my comments. Brainstorming by definition is "all ideas are welcome and should

Jeff, Anleny IA is where the FSDO lives. Right on the field. We would have to be on our best behavior!!!! I don't have an Omaha sectional, but the Des Moines airspace can't be too far away. Very much

Hold on there, Jimbo. I have a feeling that Jason may be a multitalented person. I think it may be great if someone were to create a true representation of the plane. Sure, it is slowing down his

Thomasville GA flyin is next weekend. I'm going. It's always a free small scale affair and I recommend it. If your in the South East US, come by! http://www.thomasvilleflyin.com/ FYI, Key

David, I have an original copy of the LS1 plans headed "Construction of LS(1) 0417 MOD CANARD, 2 pages of description and pics commencing with "Jigging the canard" plus 10 pages of drawings by Larry

Any tandem wings planning to attend Copperstate? Pat

Bruce, FWIW, that is my philosophy for how the FOD TW fly-in should be conducted. I feel that people come to type specific fly-ins to talk to other builders and look at airplanes. From my

Ron, Thanks for the comments. In my original airport selection criteria email to Doug and Spud I had reasonable access (within 1 hour drive) from a commercial airport on the "must have" list.

Jason, Why in the world are you trying to make building this airplane more difficult or complicated than it has to be. Do you currently own a Q kit or plane you're rebuilding? Are you starting from

Ron I have a 18 HP in it at this time.In my shop i have a 4 cylinder contenental 4 AO4 to rebuild for the q1, that should 37 to 40 HP. Brakes? I still have the pull on the handle and hope. I have
