Installation of Gear Leg Fairings on a Long EZ Installation of Gear Leg Fairings on a Long EZ The shape of the standard, fiber glass gear leg for a Long EZ presents, during flight, an airfoil with a high angle of attack. You should be able to complete this operation in about 8 hours (not including the cure time of the layups). Here are the stepwise procedures I followed (as laid out by Gary Hertzler). 4dw.net /marcborom/LongEZ/GearLegFairingInstruction.htm

Flying and EZ Aircraft In 1985 I prepared a booklet describing several functional and cosmetic modifications that we made to our Long EZ, Big Bird. I was the passenger in a Long EZ, and our formation friend was in a Lancair 360. Long-EZs have set several significant aviation records for their class including non-stop flight from Alaska to the Bahamas, and reaching an altitude of 36,000 ft with a stock plane and unmodified engine. www.3-cities.com /~debiko/flying.html

Long-EZ #27 Dave is a great guy who spent 12 long years making a very well-built fuselage, spar, gear legs, and canard. It's been a long time since the last update. Money and time, or rather a lack of both, meant that he had to part with his pride and joy, and I was fortunate enough to be able to take it over. sputnik.freehomepage.com /Longez/longez.htm

EZ Squadron Welcome to EZ squadron, a place to read about canard aircraft - VariEze, Long-EZ, Defiant, Cozy, Berkut, E-Racer, Velocity and others. Valerie Harris from EZ Jet (formerly EZ Hanger) dropped me an email to let everyone know that they are now focusing all their efforts on jet conversions for canard pushers. Each month we will try to pick a canard aircraft that stands out from the rest to be our EZ of the month. www.ez.org

FuturePundit: Airplanes and Spacecraft Archives Highly dedicated long lifers will live in jurisdictions where sky cars are banned, cars have test devices to guarantee that drivers are cognitively competent to drive, speed limits are low, and commuter train systems are designed to be extremely safe. The Personal Air Vehicle concept makes perfect sense as the future of aviation for a very simple reason: direct point-to-point flights from local and much smaller airports would be much faster than trips to bigger airports followed by hops through hub sites and trips down long hallways to go to luggage unloading areas. If you want to live long enough to travel into space your best bet is to support the development of Strategies for Engineered Negligible Senescence. www.futurepundit.com /archives/cat_airplanes_and_spacecraft.html

Rutan Long-EZ - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia As of late 2005, approximately 700 Long EZ's are FAA registered in the USA. The Rutan Model 61 Long-EZ is a homebuilt aircraft with a canard layout designed by Burt Rutan's Rutan Aircraft Factory. The aircraft is designed for fuel-efficient long-range flight and can fly for over ten hours and up to 2,500 kilometers (1,600 miles) on 200 liters (52 gallons) of fuel. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Long-EZ   (356 words)

LongEZ (N3R) Environmental Research Aircraft -Instrumentation However, air-surface exchange research usually requires straight line transects which may be as long as 100 km in length and may be flown back and forth as many as eight times in a single day. Typical flight paths are straight lines (transects) up to 100 km long, repeatedly flown in as many as eight passes a day. Special safety considerations are necessary for the long research hours we carry out at altitudes between 10 and 30 m. www.noaa.inel.gov /Capabilities/longEZ   (356 words)

Canard - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Rutan Long-EZ, with canard just ahead of the pilot The canard surface normally produces positive (upwards) lift which adds to the overall lift, whereas a conventional tailplane normally produces a downforce, partially cancelling the lift from the main wings. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Canard   (440 words)

Rutan Aircraft Designs Rutan's creative vision led to the formation of his own Rutan Aircraft Factory in 1974 to design and market innovative canard designs for home-built light aircraft such as the VariEze and the Long-EZ. Rutan's most expensive project, the Beech Starship was just one in a series of experimental and unique aircraft designs that are his trademark. Burt Rutan expanded his successful experiments with composite materials to larger-scale projects with the formation of Scaled Composites, Inc., in 1982, for the design, fabrication, and flight testing of prototype aircraft projects for both the government and private industry. www.centennialofflight.gov /essay/GENERAL_AVIATION/rutan/GA15.htm   (1156 words)

First Century of Flight's 100 Aviation Heroes Named - collectSPACE: Messages In 1974, he started his own company, the Rutan Aircraft Factory, developing innovative aircraft designs including the popular VariEze and Long-EZ for aviators interested in building their own light aircraft. On May 20, 1927, in a Ryan monoplane named the Spirit of St Louis, he took off from Roosevelt Field on Long Island, N.Y., and traveled 3,610 miles to Paris, France, completing the first solo, non-stop transatlantic flight in history. Rutan designed and developed the all-composite Voyager, the first airplane to fly around the world nonstop without refueling, covering 24,986 miles in 216 hours in December 1986. www.collectspace.com /ubb/Forum23/HTML/000898.html   (10194 words)
