Re: Q1 Project
There was a guy working on installing an electric motor in a Q1 (I think it was a university project) a few years ago. He had it in Tehachapi. Not sure if that was ever finished and/or is still there.

Q1 Project
My son is currently looking for a Q1 that is flying or close to it and needs some work. He would like it for some testing of a new engine being developed locally.
Anyone have one they would let go

Re: Ready for Spring Fling!!
Reread my last message to you. After I wrote it, I caught what I said and retracted it.
You know head up ass! I’m sure you’ve never seen that view before. 😎

Re: Ready for Spring Fling!!
I assume the distance from the left case half to the right case half plus you would need to drill that 4” or so distance to the right case half and then stop before you drilled into the right case

Re: Watch “Dr. Steve’s first solo flight in his Q2 - 1989” on Vimeo
Hi John,
Steve passed away in 2010 as the highest time pilot in a Q with over 2,300 hours. Don’t know the runway length but I remember him as being Canadian.

Re: Watch “Dr. Steve’s first solo flight in his Q2 - 1989” on Vimeo
That was a bit frightening to watch.
Jim - I can relate....I brought mine to a 7,000ft x 150ft runway to finish off my training and solo (600ft msl).

Re: Watch “Dr. Steve’s first solo flight in his Q2 - 1989” on Vimeo
Jim,
I would not have relished Dr. Steve's position landing on that short of runway, with obstacles at both ends without an airbrake. Do you know what the runway length was? Is he still flying

Ready for Spring Fling!!
Bruce, disregard that last stupid question about the heli-coil. I wasn’t thinking about what I was writing.
I hope I don’t have to go there. You are right, splitting the case is not fun!

Help, Bruce
Bruce, at Field of dreams, Dave Dougas shared he had some tailspring material he would sell me. I can't find contact info for him. There are only 18 people in the registry.

Re: Ready for Spring Fling!!
It's a 20 hour drive to Spring Fling from southern NM. Anyone from Southern Cal, Southern AZ, New Mexico, West Oklahoma or West Texas have room for 170 pounds of paying ballast?
