I am considering replacement of the rubber connector from the tank to the cobra
fitting.. Engineering suggest that the existing rubber pipe requires inspection
before the next flight.
My anxiety is squeezing or removing this item will destroy it in any event hence
the need to order an aluminium tube and connecting rubbers ASAP
I gather someone is taking orders for the tube for delivery from NZ and the rubbers
are from Tim Ward. I would like to be included in these bulk orders.

Not to be argumentative, but as i understand it, Bud's explanation ignores t
he issue reported/described in the other articles, namely that at altitude t
here is less flutter damping for the same reasons Bud explains wrt the struc
tural limits. So for flutter specifically it is TAS that is the determining
limit, and not IAS. Taken to the extreme, the U2 sometimes operates near "
coffin corner" where flutter speed is very near stall speed (IAS is indicati
ng near stall, but they are so high and the air so thin that they are near t
he risk of flutter). It is also why the http://www.perlanproject.org/ glide
r is heavily instrumented to detect the onset of flutter as they go higher a
nd higher in their record attempts.
Taht said, it is comforting to know that Ivan has tested Vd with stick excit
ation to 8000 feet, so i would assume that this could be used as the deratin
g baseline when going to higher TAS's.
Cheers,
Pete

The indicated is only 125 ish. You cannot pull enough G to achieve 6 Gs be

Hi Bill,
The aluminium elbow I distribute is for the XS both Monowheel and Tri Gear. It
also can be used for the Monowheel Classic which has incorporated the Baggage
Mod and MTOW increase. It connects with the white plastic cobra from the fuel
inlet, supplied by the XS Kit, replacing the rubber elbow, to the tank inlet.
I can put you on the list. Once a UKLAA Mod. approval is reached and the cost is
of production is agreed upon, then I shall let you know.
Cheers,
Tim
