  The aviation book - Long Ez
Long Ez aircraft currently hold the records for endurance and for height for aircraft of its weight category.
The work was painstaking and exacting in the extreme necessitating long work-cure cycles and almost unbearably hot working environments.
The advantages, however, were the ability to form the complex compound curves necessary to maximize airfoil efficiency, and the strength and lightweight nature of the resulting airframe.

  Air Show Routine
Long EZ's have a small wing (called a canard) in the front of the plane.
Whenever a Long EZ has its airspeed decreased to a point that the airplane will no longer fly, the front wing will stall and fall just to the point where the aircraft is again flying fast enough to sustain flight.
As a result of the Long EZ's efficiency it has an airbrake on the belly and both wing tip rudders can be deflected outward to increase drag allowing the aircraft to descend at a higher rate.

 NextCraft™ Berkut Design Overview
A Long EZ is currently being used to test liquid-fueled, throttleable rocket engines, piloted by Dick Rutan.
The canopy of the Long EZ is one piece whereas the Berkut canopy is two pieces, a canopy for each person much like a fighter jet.
I realized that some builders might wish to build a "stock" Long EZ rather than the Berkut variant, so provisions are made in the kit to attach the canopy in one piece, rather than the Berkut's 2-piece "fighter-type" style.

 AskTog: John Denver: When Interfaces Kill
The Long EZ is a kit aircraft designed by Burt Rutan, one of the world's greatest aerospace designers.

 Long EZ Installation
In my opinion, it is best for middle and/or lower pair to be fitted with a single long bolt that passes through both holes, with a sleeve to kept the actuator side arms separated, as with the Brock setup.
Note that, for reliability, the emergency switch bypasses the limit switches, so if the emergency switch is held too long, it will extend the actuator to the limit of its travel, which is probably enough to break something.
Thus I recommend that you either install a second gear-down sensor switch, or wire the emergency switch to draw power from the main switched power buss, so it will only operate with the main power turned on.

 Flying and EZ Aircraft
Most of the EZ owners built their own planes, and in doing so became members of a very special group of individuals.
To be a builder/pilot is to understand a great deal about what all the other builders went through to catch their dream, and to form an immediate respect and friendship that can only come from walking the same path and going through the same trials.
These tips are offered to EZ builders as something that they can consider for their own planes.
