Does anyone have an electronic version of a Weight and Balance chart for a Q1 to save me doing in Visio from scratch? I intend to try and Email this to the PFA and see if they can have joined the 21st

Jerry, Remember that you want to warm the mass of the plane, not soften the surface. Temp rises should be done in small increments and with adequate moving air so there are no hotspots on your

You sure about the 12 min 40 secs? Methinks I'll just have to have a go at that one .... Dave King <KingDWS@...> on 10/24/2000 04:24:27 AM Please respond to Q-LIST@... To:

If you are aft of the CG limit, then you may be tempted to leave some down-reflexor on to trim. If you use full roll-input at landing speed you may get reverse-aileron roll (until you unload the

If you increase the lift (or, remove some of the induced drag) at lower speeds, this will affect your pitch stability. "The Ives Hive" <iveshive@...> on 10/20/2000 01:19:59 PM Please

I'm having fun with this one! In all the air races that I've done, they are all typically 25 mile closed curcuit courses from a standing start (the length of the laps is dicated by the size of the

"You plot a course between 2 points. Your down wind leg has a 100mph tailwind. You arrive at the finish line and turn around. Start heading toward the new finish line and never make it because you

Before being allowed to air-race, I had to do a max-power run over a 1 mile course into wind (with a RAeC qualified check pilot), and then back down-wind, with a portable DGPS . The average speed was

I posted all my test results a while back. Roll rate goes (from memory) from 60-ish at Pitch-buck to about 120 at Vne (degrees per second). My tests were performed through a 90 degree arc from 45

The designer for FS4 and 5 were much easier to use than 98, so you see a lot of strange stuff. (not that Q2s are strange;-) Mike C.

Usually, EI is actually electronically controlled by a computer to set the advance curve to a particular RPM and in the case of autos, to deliver proper vacuum advance. CDI is cpacitance discharge

What is the difference and which one should be bought? Tom Ives

In case someones wants to look this up on the web, his address is www.pro.lightspeedengineering.com and he has all his products and prrices listed. Does anybody know the real difference between an EI

on www.flightsim.com I found one for a Q-2 but for MS FS 5 so its old.

in 12.9 minutes. Hope that doesn't ruffle too many feathers and I get accused of hangar flying and making it up. As usual, it was non scientific, done only watching the clock. Terry am I a

Terry, Thanks for the sound advice. I talked with one of the main guys in our bond shop at Cessna (I had official business there of course) and I shared with him my dilemma and he offered the same

Unfortunately, no. I sure would like to see it though. I'm a big believer in FS98 and 2000 (if you have enough silicon to run it!) as a full blown training device even if you can't log the time. I

Anyone know of any Quickie aircraft for Flightsim98/2000 ?

I'm with Terry on this one, try some heat first. I mixed up some polyester that just would not set up a few years ago. It took a couple of weeks, but it finally kicked off completely. I tried the hot
