[rebel-builders] I'm airworthy!

Post by Wayne G. O'Shea » Sun Feb 19, 2012 8:41 pm

How in the world do you get your airworthiness cert without running the
engine??? Part of the procedure up here.. including having the inspector
check prop tracking while it's running.

Other than that.. CONGRATS Jesse... great to hear especially considering
your kit came from my inventory!

Got my surferticket today. Still need to run the engine and finish up a
few things but should be flying soon. My weight is 957 with empty CG at
9.8" aft of the wheels. Re the ongoing discussion I guess I have to
measure the distance from door post center line to LE and subtract that
from 12 to get the forward limit, and similar for the aft limit. What is
the aft limit in MAC?

I'll also say I was damn close without even seeing what you'd built.. "I'll
hazard a guess that yours is going to come out at ~ 9" to 9.7" aft of datum
on wheels."

[rebel-builders] I'm airworthy!

Post by Jesse Jenks » Sun Feb 19, 2012 8:41 pm

I know Wayne, I was impressed by your accuracy. Having a running engine is not part of the deal down here. It just has to look like it will run I guess. My engine builder is going to come start it today hopefully. I still haven't put gas in it. I'm terrified that my tanks will leak and I'll have to pull the wings again.
I know everyone asks this, but I couldn't come up with much on a quick search, so for the sake of making me feel good can you give me a quick run down on how not to get myself in trouble and bend my new airplane on the first flight?
Thanks.
Jesse
