| Subject: | twinstar MK II info |
Hi All,
I am still in the process of rebuilding a Mark II twinstar that I purchased
last fall.
I just finished new covering on the wings and am ready to paint them. My
question is this,
what are the operating limitations on this aircraft such as VNE and also how
to calculate weight and balance.
I am sure it has been asked before but I could not locate the info.
thanks for any help,
Lee..
CGS Hawk,
Goldwing,
Vector

Hi Lee,
I asked similar questions 4-5 years ago. Mike Roper provided some stats that he
had in this thread:

I also had a scan (don't remember where I got it) from the Mark II kit. I will
attempt to attach it here. I don't know if it was for a kit that was enclosed
or open though. My stats were closer to what Mike provided.
I got several answers when asking about the level flight attitude to do the weight
and balance. You can weed through them. I never did measure the exact angle,
but took an educated guess.

Not sure if I answered your question fully the first time. If you mean you want
the directions for how to do a weight and balance (like you don't know where
to start), then Mike Huffman from Sport Aviation Specialities has a great article:
http://www.sportaviationspecialties.com/May_07_%20Wt_&_Bal_for_E-LSA.pdf
And even if you know how to do it, it has some great points and reminders that
someone might forget about when doing it. Page 3 starts the detailed instructions.
