    Subject: Eko Seal -V- other poly's
    Stewart 's Eko Seal is a water based- (borne) polyurethane. I see Minwax also has water based poly's as well. Anyone know what the difference is, if any? For the price and convenience, I am ready to pick up some Minwax rath er then order the Stewart's. If this is a big mistake and will lead to issu es later, I would like to know now, rather then later.

    Subject: Re Tail dimensions
    The dimensions for the various parts which the rudder attaches to do not add up If you build the fin & fuse according to the plans, then the rudder will hang down below the bottom of the fuse by around 11/2 inches. Suggest to build the fuse then the fin & then the tail plane , sit the tail plane on top of the fuse, (allow a bit for fabric& any packing) next fit the fin on top of the tail plane, then build the rudder to fit the total distance, I learned this the hard way. Am close to rigging & making lift struts, in order to get the wing exactly at right angles to the fuse C/L, any merit in adjusting the diagonal brace cables in the struts? Am worried that this may put a twist in the wing Or do I have to make a slight adjustment to the diagonal drag struts on the Center Section; I realize that only a very slight adjustment of the drag struts would have a dramatic effect on the wing symmetry. My drags are not adjustable at this stage & are only temporary until I check the Cof G Thanks Graham Hewitt

    FedEx dropped off my Tony Bingelis book set tonight, and I placed an order for William Wynne's "Corvair Conversion" last night. Should have plenty of reading material to help me along the way. I think I'll go ahead an order the plans tonight so I can start studying them as well. I got to talk to William Wynne for a bit on the phone last night, and I also got to visit with Jim Ballew in Collinsville today. I'm having fun already. -------- Mark Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=231280#231280

    I have made mine to the F+G manual and this is the result; Also there was discussion on flops. This is mine. It will be clear plexi top and bottom.

    Funny this has come up as I have just finished fitting the tail and have been trying to find where I have measured wrong this time. My rudder hungs down about 1/2 inch so I think I will cut it off to be level with the bottom of the fuse.

    Mike, Last I heard Jim had been transferred to a mental hospital after he kept telling them he was building an airplane in his garage from nothing but plans.
