Thank you Robert. ?Zero/Zero on thrust and 10 inches. ?Easy! What drove you to add the inch on the engine mount - CG, access, or something else?

Michael, I recently installed my O290D on my Tailwind project. I used drawing #29 from the W10 set but with a spacing of 10 - 3/16" instead of the 9 - 3/16” shown on the drawing. I did not add any

Ok, let me try ask this another way… Given a conical mount Lyc 4 banger, what is the current, accepted distance from the firewall to the front of the engine mount spools (the engine to mount

Appreciate the insight, guys. ?Has the engine location evolved over the years or is the XYZ and thrust angle stable? reason I ask is because the Starduster design has had some fairly radical changes

With two part ( polyurethane) coatings, make sure the activator isn’t more than a year old. Painted my Aeronca Chief with Aerothane years ago and experienced cracking along the stringers within a

Alex, do you have any cracking issues with the Superflite finish? Was it System 6 or 7? My Pacer is finished with Superflite System 6 and the finish looks great, but it is brittle and has cracks in

I can’t speak for earlier examples of JC tailwinds as I only met Jim after starting my Buttercup about 5 years ago. I flew over and visited several times a year during the ButterBurger and the long

Not trying to push their product but I used the Superflite system and it was sooo much easier. the main reason was during Oshkosh airventure, they gave participating individuals a $500 voucher toward

Just saying: JClementOnFabric from files. "Fabric is Ceconite 2.7 oz. from Wicks with Air Tech finishing system. Air Tech uses 2-3 coats of primer over the bare fabric, some sanding then color coat.

Thanks for the link Keith! Great builder log. This is the kind of thing we look for when doing an airworthiness inspection. Some are not nearly as good as yours! Joe [email protected]> wrote:
