Inspector and Instructor for Q-2
philmarshall05640 <phil@...>
I am buying a Q-2 from Jerry Kennedy in Sioux Falls, SD. I am flying
out to get it Sept 20th. Is there anyone on the list who can vouch for Jerry's Q-2 or could come and inspect it for me? I will also need to get at least 5 hours of dual with an instructor with time in a Quickie because the insurance company insists (and it's a good idea). I'm willing to fly with Jerry to get comfortable with it and fly somewhere to get instruction. I hope to go to the fly-in on the 23rd, but the weather may prevent it. I will be flying it back to Vermont in anycase. Phil Marshall, 450 hours (SEL & glider) Kitfox N1585F and (soon) Q-2 N214FK Adamant, VT phil@...

Phil,
Congratulations on the purchase of your new Q. If you are picking up Jerry's "Q" in 15 days, what have you done to get yourself ready to fly this Q taildragger and understand the planes ideosycracies? If the answer is nothing then the results will be predictable. This is not a difficult plane to fly but without systems understanding and a proper check out for yourself and the plane, it might as well be a 727. If you are a current high time, complex, multi-engine, instrument rated pilot, I would still say the same. Just ask Geoff Rutledge or Phil Lankford or Ron Weise or Kevin Bodiker or David Hyatt or Larry Severson. They can clear up any mis understandings you may have. Its good that you are casting about for help. Thats a start! Try to find someone in your area right away and get up to speed. How far from Boston are you? Dave Dugas is in Boston and has a sweet flying Q taildragger, maybe he can offer some input. If you don't feel comfortable, trailer it! May not be as cool as flying it into your home airport but it will get there in one piece.

Phil, I hope you read the recent "Crashed Tri-Q" messages. That too, can be
you. Don't fly until Jerry says you're ready. Getting "comfortable" is not enough. Also, you might want to read this, particularly the last paragraph: http://home.mchsi.com/~shoskins/wantQuickie.html Jerry has a proven aircraft. Sam _____ From: Q-LIST@...
