Re: Documentation prior to giving a ride
Seems like a reasonable addition to the preflight passenger briefing we are required to give (FAR 91.519). As you said, I doubt it would have any legal standing. But if it makes you feel better, go

Documentation prior to giving a ride
Hi All,
I was thinking about all the rides I've given. I think going forward I'm going to start my voice recorder on the phone and collect this statement from anyone I give a ride to. I'm not

Re: Q2/200 Engine mounts
So I have the Engine and Firewall in CAD and I'm trying to establish the position/orientation of the engine.
Do these aircraft offset the engine in any way? Nose down? Aligned to the left?

I guess I worked directly for BaE. I was the dumb right-seater to RAF test pilot and European Aerobatic Champion Neil Williams. We became friends at the Shuttleworth Collection where he was a display

Re: Q2/200 Engine mounts
Page 82 in the following linked document has a scale drawing of the mount pillar. Should be sufficient to build from.

Q2/200 Engine mounts
Does anyone have a dimensioned drawing of the Q2EM1 O-200 Engine Mount/Spacer that they’d share? Failing that, the distance the space the engine forward?
I’d download the Metal Part CAD of Canard

That sounds like a ‘trip’! I’ve wondered what the longest hop was. I’ve had half a thought that it would be cool to fly the Q200 to England and maybe some trips in to Europe. I wasn’t

A LongEz has 40usg and with the standard Lycoming 0235 uses c.5gph @c145ktas so range c.966nm.
Mine has an IO-320 so uses c.7usgph @ 75%pwr=164ktas but I had 47usg capacity, plus a rear seat 180ltr

I remember his cars were always beautifully prepared. Fast too!
How do you fly a LongEZ from the UK? What range do they have?
Race cars are so similar to these aircraft that I feel if you can turn

How about that!
When Glenn sold out to Toyota, around 2000, he started building a Berkut, and bought the LongEz I built so he could get some stick time.
I bought my LongEz back from him when he got

Hi Ian,
Sounds like you’ll do a great job if you can resist the temptation to re-engineer everything :^)
Out of interest, do you may know a pal of mine who had a parallel career to yours with Lotus,

Re: New Member Introduction
Holy Moley! That's quite a resume.
Welcome to the list.
I'll be very interested in your toughs about the carbon spar.
My guess is that you're going to have to wear your new "home-builder" hat much
