My largest concern is more having a ground incident that would require the extinguisher. If the plane is on fire in the air, the best thing to do it get it on the ground and get out of it. I think we

That is what I was thinking as well. You verified it. Thanks

I would not be concerned at all about the placement for the UL. Personally I would place the centerline exactly where the 0200 is and give it a run. Check the weight and balance carefully and go. I ha

I feel that having a good fire extinguisher is mandatory equipment for any plane. With that said, we have a nice place for one in our TriQ in the area over the main wing. In the Q200 we just got flyin

Pretty much. Pick a design that you like and go with it. I used 2 Bid to cover and 3 in the area that was thin as I made shear tips. I also installed a simple automotive light socket into the foam for

Second flight completed this AM. Put over an hour on the plane. Added some tail weight to bring it more in the center of the CG range. Much more stable. Cooling seems adequate. Oil never peaked 200 an

Yes it is a fine bird and was a great start to the project. Just a few tweaks and a longer flight tomorrow.

N33QR took to the sky last evening at about 6:15PM. Perfect take off and climb out to 2500 feet. My son was at the controls and handled her with ease. No issues found, and was able to trim the plane o

Now here is a project that would be fun to tackle. Too bad there are no plans anywhere!!!! Getting the gun would be a challenge however. Too bad the military would not even try it out. I guess it was

Great, Thanks, We are good to go it seems. Thanks Jay. Your the best. Let me know if you want to pull the trigger and buy the TriQ for training!!! hahahaha

Jay, I made some adjustments to your sheet. Main and header tank were swapped I believe. I also added the GU canard to the chart. Uploaded for your review. Thanks again for the help. Looks like we are

Your sheet is so much better!,, Thanks Jay!!

I sent you the Excel sheet. I have done that already, but did not attach it to the numbers earlier. Thanks Jay.

The section on the right was the actual weights and measures to get the CG, The left side was the chart that shows the weight and moment of each station then showing the total. I can send you the Exce

Thanks Jay, Yes that is the question. Our TriQ does have the large tank, but we have yet to do a total fill of this one and accurately measure so the numbers were for the "hope" we had 20. Probably it

Good Morning all. We had the opportunity to weigh the plane yesterday and the following is the chart we attained. I would appreciate any of you that have comment to let me know. We have a GU Canard on

I would like to see if we could bribe any Q200 drivers to come to KMIT on the 10th or 11th and provide my son and test pilot a ride in a Q200? He has 40+hrs in the TriQ and quite a bit tail wheel time

Not officially. Sam we will probably do a special event soon, but I am gone for the next couple of weekends. Weather is getting very good here so it will be soon. I will keep in touch. I really need t

And anyone that comes down to see us is welcome to try any of these props if you like. Cheers.
