Looks like it down to you and Sam Kittle! Cheers, Jay

Thanks Jim. Good reason to try to always land on speed and the numbers. Long and fast is not a good receipe but easily lulled into. Jerry Sent from my Verizon, Samsung Galaxy smartphone

Guys It’s part of my check list too. I pumped the brakes prior to landing and they were fine. So that doesn’t necessarily prove much other than brakes worked in flight. On landing, I pushed

Would you believe I started May 30, 1982? That’s 36 years; sorrystill hold the title.

Yes and no. Yes I use it and no I haven't changed it out. Although this discussion is convincing me I should! Paul

I am still running with the single brake handle with one master cyl and all Nylaflow tubing. Never changed it out. A brake line failure would totally take out my brakes. I do a brake pressure check

It's obvious that Jim did an outstanding bit of pilotage to keep that Craft on the runway and get it stopped. Would you be willing to share any techniques that you can recall you used to make such a

Thanks guys for your information. Charlie, I did go on line and check the Nylaflo stuff regarding brakes. Kind of scary. Paul F, Mike, Sam do you still run nylaflo tubing? If so, have you ever

You will need to beat me for the longest build. I am closing in on finishing in the next month or so, but I am into my 34th year on this project. Cheers, Jay Scheevel, Tri-Q, still building…but

Still working on longest build time for Q-200 S/N 2710 (family keeps getting in the way); that being said I’ve had an experience with the Nylaflo tubing which I need to impart to the group. A

OK, Kevin. My definite-maybe is now a definite-definite. I feel very bad however, after last month calling and inviting Paul Spackman to fly his Avid down here for our fat tire flying rodeo (Mack

Jim, There have been several cases of nylaflo failure. Search the web, usually where a change in stiffness occurs like a clamp or epoxied into structure. I had a brake seal failure and that was enough

I have heard of a couple of failures, but not on Q’s. The latest was last year on my home field in an Arion Lightening that had less than 100 hours, which and uses the same type of tubing as the Q.

I too like the stories - as long as they aren't mine Sent from my Verizon, Samsung Galaxy smartphone

I have always wondered about it, but no I have never experienced it... yet. Thanks for sharing the details Jim! I appreciate hearing these stories. Paul Fisher Q-200 N17PF ~1650 hours in 27.5 years

Good morning all, I just wanted to make this post to let you know I had a failure (a couple of months ago) of my left brake line about 2' from wheel pant, driver side. This is after 18 years of flying

Looking for possible delivery services. I need our TriQ to be delivered to KGRE and check out the new pilot. The delivery needs to be done by a CFI that has 25 hrs in a TriQ according to the buyers

Too good not to send. J Subject: Fwd: Russian Road Rage

Very nice Imraan, but cruel to be so far away that I cannot get a precision fix on it! 😊 Cheers, Jay

I thought I'd post a recent flight video. Jay always seems to unearth lots of useful data by measuring things on the video. I finally found a way to obfuscate his process (excited volunteer
