Does anyone know for a fact whether the new forged Gen4 pistons can directly replace the Gen3 pistons? That information seems to be hard to find. Jay

Hi Chris, I am in hangar #377. You must not be at the airport much. Do you have a hangar here? I’ve had mine here for 22 years and fly weekly. Come by when you get some time Jim Patillo N46JP

A list of aircraft flown, and your time in each would also be helpful. Assuming your name is Chris, right? Cheers, Jay

Thanks for the “eye-witness” account, Keith. Observations are worth their weight in gold! Cheers, Jay

Hi Brent, If interested I can send a photo of the template I made for applying the VG'S on my Quickie GU which skipped every other pair and took into account the sweep of the Quickie canard by

If you pass it up I'd like to buy it. I don't think I can finish mine and would love to fly.

Hi Jay, Thank you for the information about the quickies in Livermore. I am not sure exactly what you would like to know about my flying experience but I will give a quick summary. I have about 250

What is your name and flight background? Your background as a pilot is a very important detail that people on this list need to know in order to offer useful advice. Alan Thayer is based at LVK and

fuselage, canopy glass, cowl, bulkheads in CA 1000.00

That’s some great info Michael, thank you. The original instructions were very specific, I wonder why they specified placing the VG’s at two different angles? Maybe each set would be more

I came across a Quickie Q2 for sale on craigslist at Camarillo. Here is the link https://santabarbara.craigslist.org/avo/d/camarillo-q2-experimental-rutan-quickie/7386958812.html The plane was

I was surprised no one posted the actual QAC instructions for VG placement in Brent Sherstan's Introduction thread and figured the discussion warranted its own post. Hope it helps. Original QAC VG

That’s interesting David. I never knew that about the Q1. The Q2 has the two outboard edges of the center section vertical. Cheers, Jay

Eugen, I think you still do not have the centersection block correct. It’s hard to tell from SolidWorks screen shots without perspective turned on. In front view the block should be a trapezoidal

Your firewall looks great. In my hangar I keep a "come along" attached to an overhead beam. With that I can have the engine off the Q200 in about 30 min. Fly Safe, Mike Dwyer Q200

David, thanks for that detail information end explain the interrelations. So the center section foam unit for the Canard is 20“ to 18 1/2“ (14“+ 4 1/2“) with the 0.7“ slope and has no

You guessed right, Keith. We were all lined up on the grass between the primary taxiway and 18/36. Was cool to be “inside the fence” as you are well aware since you flew your beautiful little bird

That IS a very nice photo of a should have at least been a Lindy winner. Just curious where the photo was taken. Looks like where they were lining up the participants for the homebuilt review.

Thanks Bruce!

That’s great! Beautiful TriQ 200! I still think you should have been Grand Champion! Bruce
