Jay,
Nope. That’s not what I said.
Not even close.

Jeff,
I make the side plates with a notch > that fits over the trailing edge of th=

Re: Bruce's tuft study on sparrow strainers
Thanks David,
Am aware of the Roncz canard and its implementation on the EZ, but to directly convert the Quickie to that implementation would require re-engineering the elevator actuator. Could do

Jay,
John Roncz came up with the solution to this many years ago. It’s called the “Roncz canard” in the Long-EZ community. It’s an excellent airfoil, but particularly important is what he

Re: Bruce's tuft study on sparrow strainers
Yes. Radius the arms that mount to the elevator so that the BID attaches to them without sharp angles. Then scuff up the elevator where they attach at least 1" on both sides of the arms. Be sure

Re: Bruce's tuft study on sparrow strainers
You are right Charlie! Put that on the "placard" for things not to do! And never with Honey Lamb in the right seat!

Bruce roll the RV problem solved.
I know Tex Johnson rolled a 707 so why not

Re: Bruce's tuft study on sparrow strainers
Justa quick question. Can anyone recommend a reliable adhesive to attach the Sparrow Strainers to the elevator considering the constant high loads. Thanks.

Bruce's tuft study on sparrow strainers
Thanks for the cool tuft study data, Bruce. My nerdiness must be rubbing off on you, or maybe you are just retired and want something time consuming to do.
Seriously, That is an interesting

Bruce,
You are exactly right in what you've stated so please be extremely careful in pursuing this avenue; only add one or two VG's at a time as you test this out. With that said, keep these two

Hi Jay!
Not sure I really care to know. Either way I will still be aviating in both and won't put any more sound insulation in either one. (more weight)
On a side note I have been doing some tuft

That’s a good idea. Similar is available for Android. It will be important to use the same phone (mic) sensor location for each test

Hi Bruce,
If you have an iPhone it has an app available that measures abient noise level. You could give that a try.

Re: Yahoo! Groups Shuck Airfoil
I have not noticed which one is quieter. Will try to do that in the future. Trouble is remembering how loud the other plane is between switches.
I will tell Charlie hello for you Dr Mike!

Re: Yahoo! Groups Shuck Airfoil
I flew in a RV4 recently and I think the inside cockpit of the RV is a lot noisier than a Q200. I'd expect the fiberglass sandwich to dampen some noise.
Any other opinions?
