Re: Vortex Generators (VGs) on the GU Canard
From memory my project original buyer from QAC first invoiced also in 1984. No FWF, no spars, but does have orange foam cut rather ruff. No glass, no metal items.
I purchased it knowing these facts.

Re: Front Tyre
I got a 6 ply running about 40 psi and that seems firm. Time will tell.
72 PSI sounds quite high Bruce.

I think it is 4 ply. It’s the same tire that fits on the tail wheel of the Mail.

Re: Vortex Generators (VGs) on the GU Canard
Correct if I am wrong on this but wasn't the move from GU to the LS early in the Q history? I remember reading in the Q newsletters about this change.

Re: Some Qs
The elevator movement when roll input is used adds to the roll rate of the aircraft. Makes it have good roll rate even at landing speeds.

Congratulations on your first flight in the Quickie. For what it's worth, you have just become part of a small select group. My only comment is, take it easy and go slow on your first

Front Tyre
Interested in what front tyre people are using on the Tri gear.
Mine currently has a 10x 3.50 x 4 McReary Airtrac (https://www.lasaero.com/products/article/W006S408F) which is quite square in profile

Congratulations on the flights so far and I hope the weather in your parts cooperates with you. I also like the Otter on floats in the background.
