Mark:
Is actually not arguable it is just small. I have actual Hartzell data
as I mentioned, but not for the BA, for the C2YK.
Granted analytical data and actual performance on a plane may very,
but if comparing diameter on the same plane there will be real diffences,
they are just small. We are talking about 0.1% to 2.0% diffence, real
but small. The 74" has a real advantage at Vx or Vy speed in climb.
The 72" has a real but smaller advantage in high speed curise. For
most flyers the 74" is the way to go.

Hi Jim,
The general laws of aerodynamics say that the larger diameter will
give better low speed thrust and the smaller diameter will be better
for high speed flight. This may not hold true depending on how
Hartzell shaped the blades, but all other things being equal it should
work this way. Whether there's a measurable difference between
these two diameters is arguable.

Well, all of my life goes into it because, well....that's life. (g). I like
writing. I like assembling... So it's not like I'm doing something I don't
like at the expense of something I do. The RV project is out there in the
garage and it's progressing too and a nice relaxing pass. I've decided to
watch less TV, so that's good. And since the SportAir workshop at Osh (which
I had to bag after anhour), I've suffered from what appears to be Meniere's
Disease (although they're not exactly sure yet), so I'm grounded TFN,
realizing that I may never actually get to fly this thing I'm building...and
doing this helps me live vicariously through the folks that can still fly.
So, bottom line,it's fun.
Of coursse, my housecleaning doesn't get done as often (I'm like Monk on TV)
and when I walked into the den here this morning (where the dog also sleeps)
I noticed it smells like a dog. That's probably the biggest effect of the
project. (g)

I was showing a newbie my project when he mentioned that his wife didn't
like to fly, didn't want him flying and was totally against him building a
plane, but he was going to do it anyway.
There used to be an RV around the area named "Divorce One" and I see a
"Divorce Two" in the cards if he can't get his wife to change her views.
Some of you guys must have had this problem--how did you deal with it?
Did you get her to accept your flying & still have peace in the family? If
so, how did you do it?

I didn't have this problem, but I truly believe fear of flying is all about
a lack of knowledge regarding flying. If she would be open to learning from
someone else, openly as to why airplanes fly, maybe she would warm up to
some pitch hitter flying courses. I am sure it isn't that easy, but gotta
start somewhere.

>>Divorce Two<<
That's not good. I don't have so much an answer as a couple of
questions. As a former non-flying wife (I'm a flying non-wife now, but
that's a different story <g>), my resistance was from fear of what I
didn't know about flying (which was a lot). I grew up in an airline
family, but a Cherokee was a lot different, to me, than a DC-10. Before
I made the decision to learn to fly, I watched AOPA's Pinch Hitter tape
quite a few times.
Or, it could be fear of economic ruin due to his interest in flying, or
perhaps, fear of her not being #1 in his eyes. She may not know that her
husband can love flying and her at the same time.
Once I polled a few friends (a female thing) and figured out that if all
these other people could do it, I could too (and didn't need to know
calculus to fly), the belief I had changed from "I can't" to "I can."
She may be terrified of losing him in an accident, particularly in a
(forgive me) "homemade" plane. Some people are unable to put words to
these fears because they're further afraid of not seeming to be the
person they want to present to their spouse.
Or, it could be symptomatic of other, more general, problems in their
relationship. The idea of respecting and supporting your spouse's
interests, even if you don't share them, is often lost on the
non-interested spouse. If it wasn't flying, it would be some other
interest that she didn't share. It takes a particular brand of emotional
generosity to be able to do that, and some people haven't gotten there yet.
So, there are a few questions from my female point of view... hope it
helps or points him in the right direction.
best, Cory

Richard,
Most of us who are afraid to fly are actually just afraid to be a
passenger. Once they have learned to fly and experience being in control,
fear is put aside. Along with learning to fly comes the knowledge of when to
be afraid and the fact that it is not a full time requirement. Most of
those who have learned to fly are still afraid when they are passengers or
otherwise not in control.
Get her some flying lessons. It might take some talking to get her to do
it but, then again after a while, it might take a heavy duty screw driver to
pry her fingers off the stick, so you can have a turn.

If he can get her to take some flying lessons . . . that will usually solve
the problem!

Oh, no, I haven't given up yet. Still early. I've heard from a few folks who say
the same thing. I do want to figure out what FAA docs are going to be looking
for when I go in in the way of proof it's not bothering me anymore. 'course....I
gotta get to the point where it's not bothering me anymore (g).

| Subject: | Spouse afraid to fly |
--> RV-List message posted by: "Ed Bundy" <ebundy@speedyquick.net>
I started flying 20 years ago, just months after getting married. My wife
was reluctant at best, but was proud of my accomplishment in getting a
private license and acquiesced to fly with me occasionally. She got a
little enjoyment out of it, but her fear and apprehension were always in the
background.
Just for the heck of it, I suggested she attend a 99's flying companion
seminar. Best thing she could have done, and I recommend it highly. She
felt MUCH more at ease in the airplane now that she had an idea of
everything that was going on. It also whet her appetite to learn more about
it.
When it came time to build an RV (10 years ago) she wasn't against it, but
wasn't thrilled either. However, when we talked about the ability to get
away on 2-3 day vacations that were impossible by car (and impractical by
rental Cessna) or to see her family more often (16hrs by car, or 3.5hrs by
RV) she became a believer. We've been flying it for 8 years and the only
thing we fight about now is who's doing the flying.
My advise, get her to a 99 class, go slow, and show her the end result
(destinations that she will enjoy) and she might just end up enjoying the
process as well.

The following ASSUMES no prior agreement exists regarding the
bringing up/paying for of children now living ...
Decision: ... spouse -or- build plane ?
BUILD PLANE !!
(Yeah, I admit it, I just had a mysterious fight with the
spouse that makes absolutely no sense whatsoever to me. But
its probably about my building the plane.)
