The Murphy Builders Site

Hi everyone:
Just joined the site and have been looking at the posts. Very

My partner and myself are considering building a MOOSE. He already has

order forms from MAM. Found there is an 8 mo. wait for the kit.

Would like to get some opinions from the group as to how good the kits

we're looking at the fast build kit, and how helpful MAM is if you get

problems while putting the thing together. Also has anyone finished a

and about how long does it take to get it assembled. We'er looking at the

14P for the power plant. Any info about that engine would be of great

We'er in the Chicago area. Is anyone close to this area?

Thanks for reading this and looking forward to any info.

Thanks for the info.
Have been trying to locate CNC3 at Brampton, Ontario, but can not find it on
the maps. Looked at the AOPA airport lists and on Cirrus flight planner and
it's not listed. Could you give me a better location or close city.
May want to fly up and see what's going on.

Thanks
Steve

It might be listed as just NC3 .... We're about 30 miles
North West of Toronto - very close to Pearson Int'l Airport (YYZ).
Brampton is one of the fastest growing cities in Canada, with over
300,000 people now. The airport has 2 paved runways, 3,500 ft.,
and 2,600 ft., and over 200 private aircraft. The club is the
largest in North America, with over 1,300 members and a fleet of
about 26 aircraft, from 152's to 2 Senecas, including a Super Cub
and a C-172 on amphibs. The club owns the whole airport - about
200 acres, and clubhouse, classrooms, hangars, Cessna dealership,
avgas and jet fuel service.

We meet in the RAA Clubhouse at the very North end of the
airport. RAA-Toronto Region is one of the largest chapters, with
about 130+ members, our own hangar and machine shop, and about
100 projects underway, including many Rebels and S.R. / Mooses
(Meece ??). ;-)

Please do come on up if you can. We can help you with your
Moose order, too ! Or maybe show you how a Rebel just might do
everything you want to do !! ;-)

Hi Steve,

We built the Moose tail from the kit and have the fast build wings and
fuselage. I'm glad we built the tail as it gave us a good introduction
into
the construction methods used and the use of the MAM manual. MAM has
always
been very helpful with any questions, either by email or phone. This list
is
an excellent source of support. There are many Rebel, Elite, Super Rebel
and SR/Moose builders on here with tons of been there, done that,
information.

In my opinion the fast build wings and fuselage are constructed very well.
At first I wasn't sure I wanted to spend the extra $$ for the fast build.
Now I am glad we did. It goes together unbelievable fast. We started
construction on our fast build wings just over 3 weeks ago. The flaps and
ailerons are complete, the wings are closed up with only (a big ONLY) the
tips and the tank leak test/fix to go. I have a fairly accurate log and can
pull up some time of construction numbers if you want.

We went with the M14 for cost, performance (climb, not speed), and the
whole
round engine noise and mess. You can probably get into a used Lyc. at a
comparable cost and they look and perform very well too. By the time you
get to the engine installation phase there will be a lot more information,
ideas, and opinions on how to put the whole M14 package together.

Take care,
Scott Aldrich
N174SL Moose #174
