Thanks,

Hangar Flying / Long-EZ Roncz canard question
« on: September 30, 2010, 06:33:45 PM »
Hello all,
I'm starting a Roncz canard for my Long-EZ and I'm stuck on the positioning of the 3" x 1.2" inserts for the lift tabs. The GU canard plans, pg 10-2, show the inserts centered at BL 8 and, what appears to be the c/l of the shear web face. The GU canard also shows this "centerline" is actually WL 19.4.
Now on the Roncz plans the WL is 19.8 which, if this is also the c/l of the insert holes, seems pretty low on the shear web face with little edge distance from edge of insert to lower shear web face radius.
All that to ask; is the c/l of the insert holes supposed to be at WL 19.8? Please advise.
Thanks in advance.

Hangar Flying / Long EZ parts
« on: March 20, 2006, 09:25:37 AM »
Hi all,
I am sad to report that I have to abandon my early stage Long EZ project.
All the parts I am selling are in new condition with receipts and purchased within the last few months and include:
Nearly all of the Brock hardware with the exception of manual nosewheel retract mechanism and manual speed brake
Hertzler Silver Bullet propellor for 160hp
New old stock WeldTech 0-320 engine mount
Featherlite landing gear struts still wrapped in original packaging
I fabricated the bulkheads and fuselage sides, all professionally done.
Contact me for more information. I will add a post to the classified section later in the week.

Hangar Flying / Long EZ centersection hard points
« on: February 07, 2006, 12:13:33 PM »
Hello all:
I am getting ready to build the centersection spar for my Long EZ. I ordered the 1/4 x 2 and 1/8 x 2 2024 aluminum for the hardpoints and was delivered 2024-T4 rather than 2024-T3.
Does anyone in the group have the expertise to tell me if the T4 will be suitable for the spar hardpoints? From what I see in mechanical properties tables, there is a small difference in ksi T3 and T4.
Is this difference enough that I should be concerned?
Thanks,
Greg

Hangar Flying / Best 160hp 0-320 for Long EZ
« on: January 11, 2006, 01:54:24 PM »
I am in the process of deciding on an engine for my Long EZ project. A 160hp 0-320 is where I am leaning right now with one mag and LSE ignition and Ellison or Airflow Performance induction.
If I decide to get a used engine, is there one model (e.g. 0-320 D3G) that would be a better choice for a Long EZ vs. other dash numbers? If there is a model or two better suited, what is the reason, weight, dimension, etc?
Thanks,
Greg

Hangar Flying / Davenport Nose
« on: December 10, 2005, 10:00:54 AM »
I am looking for pictures of a Long EZ with a Davenport nose. I will be ready to do the nose on my Long EZ within a couple of months. I have purchase plans for the Davenport nose but would like to see some photos of a completed Long with the same nose before I start.
You can send me pics at gegullikson@yahoo.com

Can someone please give me a model number or length of the gas spring used for a Long EZ canopy? Stabilus is the make I would prefer to use.

Hangar Flying / Foam sources
« on: June 17, 2005, 12:11:23 PM »
I recently ordered some Divinycell H45 foam from AC Spruce. The price has doubled from what is listed in their current catalog. Does anyone know of a source for foam other than Wickes or AC Spruce?
I am located in S. California.
Thanks,
Greg

Hangar Flying / Long EZ wheels and brakes
« on: March 16, 2005, 08:13:59 PM »
Advice wanted on wheels and brakes. I am getting ready to purchase wheels and brakes for my Long EZ project. I have heard mixed reviews on the Cleveland 199-152 kit with some saying they are fine and others insisting that the Long needs more brake. Is it worth the extra couple of pounds to get a set of aluminum Grove wheels and brakes with a bit more stopping power or save the 2-3 lbs and stay with the magnesium Clevlands?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hangar Flying / Cozy Mk IV converted to two seat tandem
« on: January 14, 2005, 09:18:01 AM »
Hello,
Does anyone have information on anyone converting a Cozy Mk IV to a two seat tandem configuration? Seems like a good choice for nice, wide comfortable seating from and rear for only two people. :idea:
Thanks,
Greg
