I have not noticed any problems and have done fill work in temps down to about 55 F without a heat tent. I do not like to do it but have.

Advisory circilar 90-89 is also a very useful reference to have on hand. You can get a copy at

Hangar Flying / Micro fill

David,
Personally, I do not like to work in 45-50 degree temps (C or F!). So, this is speculation. I think that you might have problems with the problems with the micro not adhering to the skin surfaces. I think it will tend to roll up and be harder to work with. You can try spot heating with lamps and hir dryers to make working with the micro easier. You might also try tenting the immediate work area. I don't think that there will be physical differences in the final cure.
I would still tend to want heat the work area so that working with the stuff would be easier.

If you use the entry form it should get in within a couple of days when a moderator gets a chance to make the data entries.

Hangar Flying / VEZE wing fences

Bruce - your software may not be really broken. It could have more to do
with the inclusion of in line pictures in the posting. Since the picture now
makes the browser think that the page is as wide as the pic, it thinks it
has plenty of room before it has to wordwrap.
Walter and Barney could help out by setting the display sizes of their
pictures (if the forum software will accept those html tags) or they could
crop the pictures before including them with an inline post.
Of course, you could always purchase a wider moniter. A 25 incher could
also double as a TV. ;-)
(Then again - hitting CRLF every 72 characters or so would ensure that all
of our posts are backward compatable for those of us using laptops
and "older" computers. But - it is a really hard habbit to get back into
since I threw out the old Corona.)

Hangar Flying / Static Load Test
« on: October 12, 2007, 07:02:05 AM »
Education or recreation.
I was reading through CP issues last night and found the issue where the Solitaire was load tested but I cannot find any testing on the Long EZ. I seem to remember that in one issue Burt said that performing the test could be hazardous but that RAF would supply the schedule to persons that wanted to perform the test.

Does anyone have the distribution and schedule for static load testing of a Long EZ wing? Canard?
