    Subject: 2005 Matronics Email List Fund Raiser [Please Read]...
    --> EZ-List message posted by: Matt Dralle <dralle@matronics.com> Dear Matronics Email Listers, Each year during the month of November, I hold a PBS-like fund raiser to support the Email Lists sponsored here. As you have probably noticed, there is no commercial advertising on any of the List-related web pages or in any of the email distributions. The Matronics Lists are supported completely though the generous Contributions of its members. Making a Contribution to support the continued operation and upgrade of the Matronics Aviation Lists is completely voluntary, but I encourage you to consider making a donation that is equal to the value and entertainment you have received from these Lists over the past year. And thanks to a number of extremely generous members/businessmen found on the Lists, there are some truly awesome Free Gifts to be had during this year's List Fund Raiser! Andy Gold of the The Builder's Bookstore, Paul Besing of Aeroware Enterprises, and Jon Croke of Homebuilt HELP have all contributed products from their respective catalogs in support of this year's Fund Raiser! Thank you! Andy, Paul, and Jon are great guys and I really appreciate their support for the Lists. I encourage each List member to visit their respective web sites for a closer look at each of their great product lines. Its guys like these that make this such a great hobby/sport to be a part of! I have included links to each of their web sites below. And just like PBS, I will be making pretty regular reminder requests throughout the month of November. I ask for your kind consideration and understanding during this time and realize that this Fund Raiser is the *only* source of financing and support I have for these Lists. I am continually upgrading and improving the hardware and systems required in support of the Lists. This year saw a substantial upgrade to all of the computer room infrastructure including gigabit networking, dedicated air conditioning, an equipment rack, and high-performance system chassis upgrades. Yes, it was expensive, but I feel the Lists are worth it! Hopefully you do too! All of these upgrades are what add up to the High-Performance, Highly-Available system that everyone has come to expect of the Email Lists at Matronics. Please make a Contribution today to support these upgrades and the continued operation of the Matronics Email Lists. The Contribution web site is fast, easy, and secure to use. You can even select a sweet Free Gift with a qualifying Contribution amount. The Contribution Site can be found here: http://www.matronics.com/contribution Thank you for your generous support!!

    Subject: Varieze
    --> EZ-List message posted by: bill shook <billshook2000@yahoo.com> Hello, I am tossing around buying a Varieze so I have something to fly while I build my RV-4. I am hearing conflicting stories on the varieze though, some say a dream to fly...no real issues, others say difficult CG if equipped beyond minimum, very high fence speeds etc. Any thoughts from those flying would be very much appreciated since I have yet to climb in one.

    --> EZ-List message posted by: Kent Ashton <kjashton@vnet.net> Problem is, if you go to canard airplanes, you won't finish the -4. ;-) I would think that if you weigh 180 or less, you would have no problems in a Vari. The CG is not a great problem, but the airplane has to be ballasted for the pilot. Investigate the issue of wing attach point corrosion, which is a recent problem. All the canard airplanes are slick and take a little getting used to. Lots of average guys flying them, though. --Kent Cozy IV > From: bill shook <billshook2000@yahoo.com> > Reply-To: ez-list@matronics.com > Date: Tue, 1 Nov 2005 17:34:14 -0800 (PST) > To: ez-list@matronics.com > Subject: EZ-List: Varieze > > --> EZ-List message posted by: bill shook <billshook2000@yahoo.com> > > Hello, I am tossing around buying a Varieze so I have something to fly while I > build my > RV-4.
