If you look in the background of some of the photos, there is another
tri-Q, probably a tri-Q200

Yes, I believe you are right Bruce, I have many picture of that plane
from Sun and Fun when he showed up with the Irish Setter puppy.

Bruce,

I had a friend who tried to buy this airplane about 9 months ago. He had
cash in his hand ready to buy it, but the owner put so many restrictions on
the sale that I am not sure anyone would ever be able to register the
airplane. He would not provide a bill of sale or even disclose the aircraft
tail number. He was so secretitive that you would have sworn it was some
kind of a drug deal.

I do see in the pictures now posted on eBay that you can see the N number,
maybe he realized he would never be able to sell the airplane with such
stipulations. I understand people are very concerned about getting
sued.....if you (not really you) are that worried about it just cut the
plane up and sell off the parts. It sure looks like a pretty airplane.

The airplane is located about 100 miles from my home near Springfield, MO.
Maybe someone can give me a good reason to fly down to Springfield to take a
look at it. I flew about 1.2 hours today....just out boring holes in the
sky with my Dragonfly.

There is a builder on this list who is familar with this airplane and may be
able to provide additional information about the quality if someone is
interested. I am not going to volunteer him, but if you ask he will
probably reply.

Jeff

Oh ye of knowledge - In my endless crusade to restore N672CP to a flyable
condition, I have upgraded the brake mounting bracket and serviced the
"Airheart Brakes." After totally dismantling the brakes & purging the old
mineral oil fluid from the system, I am unable to completely bleed the
brakes, i.e. with the first compression of the brake cylinder (conventional
arm rest mounted handle) I consistently get air in the line with negative
brake. These are the differential type Airhearts' with independent
approximate 5" brake cylinders with 1 ea. bleed valve per cylinder. The
calipers have 2 ea. bleed valves. I've tried bleeding from the top down and
several times from the caliper bleed valve up through the cylander valve
with a "mityVac" vacuum system! No luck. Realizing this is a hybrid old
system - is there a special tool or technique I'm missing or should I scrap
the Airheart system altogether? Thanks, Joe

Bob, I had the same problem with calipers and master. You can change all seals to different ones made for DOT fluid' or use the OEM one"s with red aviation fluid. I choose the later.

Beware of Dot 5 if you are using the Airheart brakes. It is compatible with
Cleveland or Matco brake systems, but not Airheart (unless they have changed
their seal compounds in the caliper). I tried Dot 5 early in the game (1998)
and had massive leaks develop in the calipers. A switch to aviation red
fixed the problem and I've had no more leaks. I use Matco master cylinders
and Airheart calipers.

Hi Joe,

I thought you bought an airplane that flew in from my part of the country.
How come so many problems?

What kind of brake fluid are you using? If you are not using aircraft
fluid, get some. I have had nothing but trouble with transmission fluid.

No special tools required. You must bleed from the top bleed port on the
calipers. Pressure bleeding from the bottom and standard bleeding from
the
top will both work. One problem is that the bleed screw must be turned
open
to get fluid in/out and when you do this, there will be air going into the
line. So you should attach a tube to the screw with fluid in it and open
the screw when there is positive fluid pressure to keep air out.

I had a unique problem with one airplane. The master cylinder was
attached
to a parking brake valve with a solid line. When I pulled on the brake
handle, the solid line put tension on the connection to the valve and
created a leak.

You could also use dot 5 auto fluid but must first purge all the remaining
fluid in the system with paint thinner and disassemble the pistons and
clean
them out (both master and calipers). When dot 5 mixes with dot 3 or
aircraft fluid it becomes a jelly. The great thing about dot 5 is that
the
seals will not deteriorate. The US military uses dot 5 for this reason.

Hope this helps.

My hanger mate and I found a large oil can with a pump. While one of us pumps the brake fluid from the bottom the other watches the top to make sure it doesn't run over. The oil can is big enough that we can pump the system full with out stopping and refilling the reservoir. Then the pump guy tightens the bottom bleed nut.
If you have a low place in the brake line it will be hard to get all of the air out.
Also the position of the caliper with respect to trapping an air bubble in it should be looked at. You may need to take the caliper loose and use a c-clamp to hold the puck while you position it so that no air can be trapped.
Check to make sure that the connection from the pump to the bleed nut doesn't have an air leak.

Joe,
Do not use teflon tape!!! It will shread into particles and get into your
system.

Try having helper pump up brakes and hold pressure on the master crack the
upper bleed valve and before the flow stops close the valve. After a couple of
cycles stop and refill the master cylinder. The whole system will be under
pressure all the time the bleed valve is open air cannot get in. I have to
actually pull my wheel cylinders off the axles and turn the cylinder (not
Airheart) toget all the air out.

Bob,
Airheart offers both types of seals now (DOT 5 or Mil-H-5606). I'm trying to determine which would be compatible with the Mil-H-83282 synthetic fluid mentioned in an earlier post today. It looks like good stuff, and since I'm working on brakes now, I may as well use it.

Thanks again for mentioning that brake master cylinders on Quickies should be the non-reservoir type. I had some Matco MC-5's I was going to use, but hadn't thought about trying to add fluid later. Now I've got the MC-4's and a remote reservoir.

Hi Bruce and Jeff'
I got a phone call from someone named Bill Rose, who's from the KS area, and he is very interested in this airplane. He said that the owner would only sell it as parts, deregistered etc. etc. I didn't know how to help him or give him any useful info about the FAA hassle that he may be in for. I did tell him that he should get on this list for starters. His e-mail is f4wildroses@....

tail number. He was so secretitive that you would have sworn it was some
kind of a drug deal.

I do see in the pictures now posted on eBay that you can see the N number,
maybe he realized he would never be able to sell the airplane with such
stipulations. I understand people are very concerned about getting
sued.....if you (not really you) are that worried about it just cut the
plane up and sell off the parts. It sure looks like a pretty airplane.

The airplane is located about 100 miles from my home near Springfield, MO.
Maybe someone can give me a good reason to fly down to Springfield to take a
look at it. I flew about 1.2 hours today....just out boring holes in the
sky with my Dragonfly.

There is a builder on this list who is familar with this airplane and may be
able to provide additional information about the quality if someone is
interested. I am not going to volunteer him, but if you ask he will
probably reply.

Hi Bruce and Jeff'
I got a phone call from someone named Bill Rose, who's from the KS area, and
he is very interested in this airplane. He said that the owner would only
sell it as parts, deregistered etc. etc. I didn't know how to help him or
give him any useful info about the FAA hassle that he may be in for. I did
tell him that he should get on this list for starters. His e-mail is
f4wildroses@....

Bruce,

I had a friend who tried to buy this airplane about 9 months ago. He had
cash in his hand ready to buy it, but the owner put so many restrictions on
the sale that I am not sure anyone would ever be able to register the
airplane. He would not provide a bill of sale or even disclose the aircraft
tail number. He was so secretitive that you would have sworn it was some
