The Murphy Builders Site

Hi all
Can anyone remember off hand the desired tow out
distance at the front and
rear with spring gear? Was it 1/4 inch? Thought I
kept the thread on it's
last discussion but can't find it by searching the
mail.
Thanks to those who respond

FWIW,

I'm building my Rebel for LSA but I wondered about

eventual resale to

someone who wants the higher gross so I asked the

EAA and the FAA at Sun N

Fun and of course got two different answers. The

guys at EAA insist that

you
can't up the weight later but the FAA said its no

problem. I specifically

asked about upping the weight with (re-engine) and

without physical changes

and the FAA was emphatic that its just paperwork

either way. Will the next

Fed you ask give a different answer? Who knows.

Bob, sorry I didn't get to

thank you personally for the beer. and I promise to

drink more next year.

Bob,
The LSA specs do not require any special

resistration. All that is

required is that the aircraft meet the LSA

specs. It can be amateur

built

or certified. If it is an SLSA (factory

completed) there has to be an

acceptance by the FAA that it complies with the

ASTM standards. Not

sure

about the ELSA as that is an unattractive option

at present to all

parties.

As far as I know, any Canadian amateur built

that is properly registered

and can legally be imported to the USA and

registered here can be flown

by

a Sport Pilot as long as it meets the LSA specs.

Slightly toe in is better than toe out, but straight
is desireable. Murphy sells wedges in varying degrees
that you can mount between your axle and the gear leg
to adjust the toe in/out.

Good Luck - James (reb493)
