HI Richard, I have not yet started but most of the material arrived last week. I am still missing the epoxy pump and I need to complete my night class before I can start spend time on the kit. I have looked at the instruction and I find difficult to follow. The instructions don’t have enough info to build with and the building is somewhat different than the Cozy. So far I have found that; I have to use the Areocad instruction with the videotape and to help the Cozy plans. The videos have a lot on info in them but they are not well organized but I found that listening to the video really helps understanding what the instruction is trying to say. The instruction suggests to start with the wings I think it is a bit critical part to start with. I will start with the bulkheads since mine are or appear to be incorrect. Then I will level the longerons, install the bulkhead just by the firewall and at front before the nose cone. From there I will do like the video suggest to get the landing bulkheads… this is as far as I got. Do you have the video, Aerocad instruction and a set of COZY plans? How much of the kit do you have? Did you ID all the parts? Some of mine I still don’t know what they are. Joel jxj@shaw.ca

One more thing, I do have the videos and they now sell them in DVD but it is the same info but maybe better quality video. I can say the video quality is not good but the info is great. It sure help visualize the how it can be done or measure, I think it has some good tips. For me, since my English is not so good, it sure help me understand what the instruction mean. Joel

HI Guys, I am also a Aerocanard builder, I just purchased a old kit s/n 43. I have the bottom tub, top, landing gear no bulkhead... You guys are the only people I have seem building the Aerocanard. I am building the FG and I do have a lot of the parts already. I have not started on it yet but I will in the next month. I am still waiting for epoxy pump, fiber glass... from AS. I put my order in December and still have not received yet. Is any of you know some Aerocanard web sites? Sorry for my spelling it is not my language! Joel

Sorry, I sold the plan last fall. Joel

I have a new comlete set of COZY IV for sale. It is the 3rd rev and was never used. The S/N is 1277. I recently purchase a Aerocad plan and kit and I won’t need the COZY plan early purchased. $400 joel jxj@shaw.ca
