No flutter - 123 hours
flutter - 0 hours
Jeez! I fell sorry for you guys building still and spending time on this forum.
When I was building, the big controversy was green vs. brown scotch-brite.
I changed computers several months ago and lost the link to this list. This evening
I just spent a few hours reading all the posts and watching the videos and
listening to webcasts, etc. and it looks like to me some of you guys shot yourselves
in the foot by notifying the NTSB! Are you serious????? I apologize
in advance to those that did this thing - I'm sure you had good intentions but
if ever you want to contact the government to save me from myself, please don't!
I promise not to use my lawn mower as a hedge trimmer or try to light a
bonfire with gasoline for fear of the government banning the use of lawn mowers
or the dispensing of gasoline into portable cans. Stupid is as stupid does.
If you have the gumption to build and fly one of these beautifully designed, docile-flying
aircraft called the 601XL, (or if you have the good fortune to buy
one already built) then do a thorough pre-flight which includes checking the
aileron cables and go flying! I try to do it once a week and still get a thrill
out of it after a year of flying by myself with my new sport pilot license
which I earned with an instructor in my 601XL.
I probably won't be checking back here to see if anybody replies, so email me directly
if you feel strongly about contacting me. Meanwhile I'm going to concentrate
on finding the time to fly and spend less time on this silly computer.
My email address is on my website that I haven't updated in a while.
Happy flying,

P.S. Put a BRS in your airplane if you are worried about magic flutter happening
to a sound aircraft. It's an easy installation. Lord knows how mad some people
will be if the NTSB mandates that all light aircraft install a BRS type
system.
