Charlie, thanks. I am considering a Kerosene heater to keep me and the hangar warm, not much epoxy work, but the project is not painted so is there threat of some contamination on composite

Like propane or kerosene ? Propane produces a lot of water vapor, this can react with epoxy cure agents to produce amine blush on the surface of your laminate. Amine blush can be removed by scrubbing

Is there a problem in using Torpedo heaters in workshop/ hangar while working on composite airplane projects? Thanks Sanjay

Thanks Jon and Dan, Looks good. Cheers, Jay Scheevel, Tri-Q still building

Shaun-----------  I don't have a Q but on my Dragonfly I needed to reinforce the area where my heals sit.  After about ten years it was a bit hollow. Drilled it, filled it with micro, and glassed

Hello, The QBA website has been restored and is back online thanks to Dan’s key assistance. http://www.quickheads.com Looking forward, the site will be reworked into a platform that is

I will send you my condition inspection checklist. Seven pages. Sam

If it's actually a Q-200 it'll have factory-built tapered tubular carbon fiber spars, that are semi-exposed in the cockpit. Be sure to coin-tap test them inside the cockpit. Pat

Look along the top surface of the canard. Any waviness means probable damage from hard landing (disqualifier unless you want to do extensive repairs). Check log books and see when it last ran (long

Hi and thanks for the add into the group! I'm seriously considering buying a Q200 and am having a buddy take a look at the airplane for me this weekend. I'm pretty familiar with general items to look

According to my modeling, once you reach Vmin the only way to arrest the sink rate is with power, so I can see what you are saying Jerry. Cheers, Jay Scheevel, Tri-Q, still building

Not a chance. But, flying the q200 model in X-Plane a lot would help.

With AOA I can fly final at 80MPH. However final is with power. Sent from my Verizon, Samsung Galaxy smartphone

My approach and landing inumbers are the same as Paul’s. Jim Patillo N46JP Q200 1450 hours on my Q

Yet another perspective. ("if you can't say something nice, don'say anything at all") we would all live in a VERY silent world if this were true. In the military and aircraft manufacturing world you

Another perspective. Would anybody send a non pilot on a solo in a q 200 with only 10 hours of instruction? Sent from my Verizon, Samsung Galaxy smartphone

Hi. I didn't know about that - love Comanches (my dad had a 180 Comanche)

Finger brakes fit nicely onto the center console and thereby may be used from either seat Phil
