Sounds really good, Chris. You have clearly built a nice airplane. Do you have a reduction drive on you Subaru, or is that 3200, the crank speed. About the sink rate. Keep in mind that there is a "'mi

You got it now, Troy. The envelope was expanded for the LS1 canard, and I am guessing that you have the GU canard, so strictly speaking you will want to use your blue outline, but there is probably so

All the material that you need is in a folder in the files section of the group. If you do not find what you are looking for, I have an interactive spreadsheet that is much more extensive that can be

Thanks. The picture will still help, but that location is one you need to be sure about. The closer to the wing root, the more bending stress on the wing, so the more critical the repair. Cheers, Jay

Please send another photo, so we can see where this is located on the wing (ie. zoom out). Some places you repair can be very critical and others, not so much, so we need to see where this is located.

Hi Robert, I think you can install it where you want it vertically, It would only be a matter of rebuilding or adjusting the vertical pushrods to suit your choice of vertical position of the donut. Al

Looking very good Robert. Only one comment from me. That seatback bulkhead joining the leading edge of the wing and closing out your over-wing storage “shelf” is the only roll over protection you have

Thanks for the report, Chris. I was wondering if you had dug out yet, and it appears you have. Sounds like you have a very good handling plane. Cheers, Jay

Hi All, At the Spring Fling, I shared a short story over lunch with Nathan Peck concerning the violent demise of the Scaled Composites 80% scale Starship prototype. Just by coincidence, I just happene

Hi All, I promised Jerry and Sam H that I would send a link to the details on how to find the LED strip/ribbon lighting that I had strung into my area forward of the cockpit and beneath my panel. I fi

The tailwheel guys will pipe up soon, but I will tell you now that the tail spring will break where the local load concentration is the highest. If you have a stiff sleave and you put it over the soft

Starting to get that way. I have made two runs from western Colorado to Enid, One to Decorah, one to Oshkosh and now one to Terre Haute. We are becoming one…. Cheers, Jay

Great to see you again, Mike. You need to do what I did and sell that airplane (Bonanza), so you have incentive to “git-er-done” 😉. Just kidding, that Bonanza is a very comfortable and efficient ride!

Hi All, Just added up the numbers for out and back to Keith’s spring fling. Going there, I flew 1152 statute miles in 7.27 hours of flight time (did it in one day). That is average of 158 mph groundsp

Hi All, Made it home this morning. I experienced “right-on-the-nose” headwinds nearly the whole way home in order to pay penance for the tailwinds that I had when flying to KHUF. After leaving St. Joe

Thanks for the great fun guys. Thanks also to Keith for doing a great job setting it up and hosting. Even during planting season. I had a great visit and a hike with my buddy in Lafayette and the flew

Great report, Jerry. Always find something interesting. Congrats on reaching 1000. Wow! Cheers, Jay

Hi All, Sorry, this is not exactly Quickie related, but most will be interested. I have ordered a large VFR flight planning map as a photographic print from EdwardsPhotography.com . They make a print

Thanks for the great info, Keith still haven’t decided on Thursday or Friday yet. I will do that after the weekend. So far weather is still looking good. Cheers, Jay N8WQ

Very nice Chris!
