Looking To Visit A Canard Project In SoCal
jridge replied to PhatRV's topic in Introductions, Visits, Sightings & Rides
PhatRV- I checked the Canard Owner's & Builder's Association (COBA) database that Kent mentioned above. There's a guy building one in Corona. Others around SoCal too. Jeff -
Do it!

Glad it made in safely. How about posting a few photos of it?

I don't have a Vari-Eze, but I bet the wings come off by just unbolting. Canard fasteners can probably be removed by opening the nose cover and reaching back for the fasteners to be removed. I transported a Long EZ from California to Colorado on a single axle trailer. Here's a couple of examples of Long EZ transport...

Can try Burrall Sanders at Freeflight Composites. He's just outside of Colorado Springs. https://www.freeflightcomposites.com/

Glad to see you're making progress again. Are the engine mount extrusions the stock 1/8" x 1" x 1" size or have they been increase in size?

You images of Mark Lytle's Long EZ, see https://www.trade-a-plane.com/search?category_level1=Single+Engine+Piston&make=RUTAN&model=LONG+E-Z&listing_id=2425466&s-type=aircraft

Looks like a great start!

From what I've read, you also want to add two structural members to the engine mount structure.

hdmax - I'd be interested in Long EZ CAD files. I was toying with building my own CAD model as I started building one. But I ended up purchasing a previously completed/flying Long EZ so haven't continued with the modeling effort.

Welcome back Kent Ashton! It's been a while since you've posted here. Have you been okay? Jeff

Looks nice Les!

What a Starship doing in Ukraine? I wonder when the Google Maps image was taken.
