Not really, all the members make comments and that's what we're here for. Some people like canards some don't; personally I like all types of aircraft but canards always get a bad rap because of their poor vision, but every problem has an answer. My concept is the possible answer for that particular problem.

Haven't got a clue what you mean, I only put up a concept drawing for comment.

A Concept I started back in 2020; did some work on it, then filed it. Pulled it out a couple of months ago and this is the result "A side by side 2 seat Canard design with exceptional vision" What are your thoughts?

Chris Conroy's Sparrow aircraft were offered to me by his sons who were selling off all his aircraft assets as non of them were interested in aircraft. I told Dennis about what was available and he purchased the assets, now stored at Maryborough

Does anyone know if there is a list for L2 personal available for build inspections for Queensland; there use to be a list, but I can't find anything now

That is totally rediculious.

Admin, How do I edit or add to a topic that I have started ????

Would anyone here have or know of anyone that would have; a building manual and/or plans for a Kolb Twinstar Mark III Xtra.

Chris Conroy also had the Terrier at one stage and was called the "Aerolite Terrier" which was sold to Max Peters in Victoria who owned Amax Gyrocopters, I don't think Max produced any of the Terrier's and sold it (I think it was bought by Helmut Kley) Foxcon maintains that they designed the Terrier from scratch which is total bs

FAA Proposes Rule to Enhance Safety and Performance of Light Sport Aircraft Wednesday, July 19, 2023 WASHINGTON – The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is planning to enhance the safety and performance of Light Sport Aircraft operations. The proposed Modernization of Special Airworthiness Certification (MOSAIC) rule would put performance safety standards around larger aircraft that innovators are building by expanding the definition of Light Sport Aircraft. "This rule will encourage manufactures to make Light Sport Aircraft operations safer, more versatile and accessible while maintaining rigorous safety standards," said Acting FAA Associate Administrator for Safety David Boulter. Under the proposal, the aircraft’s weight limit is based on its stall speed. By permitting higher stall speeds, the proposal would bring within the Light Sport Aircraft regulatory framework aircraft weighing as much as 3,000 pounds. This more than doubles the weight of aircraft under the current definition of Light Sport of 1,320 pounds, allowing larger and stronger aircraft to qualify as Light Sport. The proposal would also expand the type of aircraft sport pilots can operate and allows them to use their aircraft for a wider range of operations such as some aerial work. Although sport pilots could operate aircraft designed with up to four seats, they would remain limited to operating with only one passenger. The public has 90 days to comment on the proposed rule once it is published in the Federal Register. The FAA will publish a final rule and respond to comments after the comment period closes.
