Re: First air-to-air shots of N8WQ
I know that Ray’s EZ was built 28 years ago, and to my knowledge, he had not replaced the lines since then.
Cheers,
Jay

For those who have experienced nylaflow failure, how long had the lines been in service?

Re: First air-to-air shots of N8WQ
Hi Mike,
Jim P can confirm whether I am correct or now, but I think that he (Jim) has had a failure in one of his nylaflow lines, and it was in the outer third of the wing, not close to the wheel.

Hi Jim,
I think that one piece solution will be fine and dandy. Need the high pressure fittings on each end. I ordered mine pre-made from discounthydraulichose.com

Nylaflow ages poorly. Nylon requires a small amount of water in the matrix. We had to soak injected molded nylon structural parts in 190 F water for 24 hrs after injecting at 600 F. I believe the

I have had aluminum tubing and braided stainless steel Teflon from the beginning. No worries here.
I do understand that the Nyla flow is effected by heat ie being close to the brake

Re: First air-to-air shots of N8WQ
That raises a question. Has any Tail Dagger Q had a nylaflow failure? The nose wheel versions can really stand on the brakes so the Tri-Q might benifit from better brake line.

Re: First air-to-air shots of N8WQ
Thanks Jay,
I’ll let Ray know you’re thinking about him.
I plan on using AN2 S/S braided Teflon, 3,000 psi. Do you see any issues running AN2 full length from caliper to brake cylinders on

Thanks Jim, but you two are fully trained airmen! Give my condolences to Ray. He was out here last fall and I got to have a few lunches with him. His plane looked great with the new paint, so I bet

Re: First air-to-air shots of N8WQ
Look at the sandbar position on the strut and Jays tail position relative to the sandbar in the two photos. This is a flyby no formation here.
I took my Tri-Pacer to Copperstate two days ago great

What? You could fly with a Champ? Did you install flaps or something? I don't see a drag parachute in the photos.
