GYROFLUG SC01B Aircraft For Sale - 1 Listings | Controller.com Don't see many of these. In Europe.

Found a Velocity in Virginia for sale on FB. I'm not knowledgable enough to be an authority, but the price feels high... panel, engine, retractable gear all add cost though... if it was finished maybe a justifiable price? https://www.ipadpilot.io/2019/07/01/velocity-se-project-for-sale/?fbclid=IwAR15RqeNHn6T4UUzv67onv9buWVlO0PneYegZ1iHg21cqYbEq9O3hBxtHhA

Sold.

Sale pending.

I have been a bit lazy on the marketing. Thanks for the help Kent! I'll post to the email lists again, and "My"list-Atlanta. One would think I'd frequent my list more often, but I forget. Hehe.

Wow. The Lancair seems to be a steal just for the parts.

It's mentioned in the title of the ad, but not the body, and you'd think it be worthy of a pic or mention in the ad. Also, Kent, thanks for the mention of my project! I'm still not sure what relevance the EZPoxy reference has, although I' thought Dennis' wings were build using MGS.

Price drop to $13,000. Also, Dropbox no longer allows public links to files so here is the build log link in Google drive: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B53WfmKJ5ZBiZjU1ODVCZ1ZFOHM

Bump and updated price $15,000

A really nice looking Defiant. http://www.ebay.com/itm/142532779281?ul_noapp=true

Thanks for the plug Kent!

Great opportunity for a 3-5 year head start, $40k+ of materials, and thousands of hours of free labor. Photos and original build log linked. I'm second owner (all construction by original owner Chad Robinson with extensive contribution from John Slade). Since I acquired the project in 2012 I've put a few hundred hours of filling/sanding into the wings, canopy, and top of fuselage/strakes. Sadly, back problems mean I can't finish the project. Project was inspected by Marc Z in August, and deemed free of any visible defects that would cause concern moving forward. Project Includes: Dennis Oleman Wings, Spar, Canard Electric nose lift Electric speed brake Carbon fiber wheel pants Audio panel and some instruments Fuel tanks/strakes sealed/leak tested by original owner Original ver.3 plans Project has the most desirable mods: Cozy Girrrl Strakes (huge interior volume increase) Forward hinge canopy (easier loading/unloading;increased safety, makes unlatched canopy non-event) Internal rudder bellhorns (5kts faster? (every mod good for 5kts???)) $17,500 Available for inspection ​in Athens, Georgia, USA ​ @ KAHN https://goo.gl/photos/4ZuLitEqNh2NHrBd7 https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/628027/Lucubration.pdf

If you are inside the strake and can retrofit the filter bags Al Wick has evangelized, I would use those.

Yes, currently. One for sale, one for keep... or both for keep.

I don't see a way to edit my previous posts... is that not an available feature?

Rattlecan. https://www.lowes.com/pd/Rust-Oleum-Specialty-Appliance-White-Fade-Resistant-Enamel-Spray-Paint-Actual-Net-Contents-12-oz/3728721 A few on the field have used it w/ decent results, although not on a prop w/ exhaust exposure as you mentioned.

Decided to start participating in Canard living. Been working for months in seclusion. Kent's progress reports have motivated me to try to share more (despite my hardcore introversion). So, tonight I got a couple hours in, and in typical me fashion, I jumped around as stuff caught my eye (look, shiny!). I started the evening with the intent of tidying up the hangar (I've let things go a bit with some partially completed tasks causing a few tool piles to pop up outside the toolbox) and about 10 minutes into tidying I ended up getting too close to the prop while holding a sanding block and decided to finish sanding to prepare to repaint (prop has a repair spot from a cowl screw that was a little bit proud) and remove the paint that was applied to the tips. It's a Hertzler Silver Bullet, and I intend to repaint with White Epoxy Appliance paint. Anyone have any tips as to what the correct method is to sand something with no flat surface? Ok to hand sand w/o a block? Pics attached. When I finished bit of sanding I returned to tidying, and finding the Fein tool decided to work on trimming the flange in the left side of the fuselage. I started by making a template from paperboard of the right side flange so I could get the sides to match. I traced the outline from the template to the flange, and removed the plastic and duct tape used to create a gap (about 1/8") between the fuselage and flange. I cut a piece of .032" steel sheet to slide between the fuselage and flange while trimming so as to not accidentally cut too deep and cut into the fuselage side. I got the rough cut done and just need to sand to final shape. Pics attached. --Craig

Also, in August was inspected by Marc Zeitlin and deemed worthy of completion with no visible squawks that would be a concern finishing the project.

Still available. Price drop to $19k

Jeez, just noticed you're in Jefferson... I'm off Jefferson Rd. in Athens, 10-15 mins away.

I think if a Cozy is on the smallish side for you, an RV-10 or if you want a canard design Velocity XL would be better for you. That said both are a lot more expensive... as in probably double to triple depending on panel etc. Personally I like not having the same (Van's) airplane as 1000 others on the field at KOSH.

Woody (the author of that article) is in my EAA chapter and I eat BBQ with him most Fridays. He makes some great points I hadn't really thought about before, as I thought the economics were the biggest driver in the decline of GA. It's such multifaceted issue, and sadly as Woody points out the downward trend not likely to be reversible.
