When flared, the canopy & fuselage seem to be at a higher angle, than when in a cruise attitude.
Could be detrimental to having clean airflow over the tail feather.

Yes JackC.
Also get that "wing loading" removed from the 95-10 caturgury .
There Was 17 on tha build list, and I have been given a set of plans from another " Not going to build ".
That Could have been the 18th aircraft on the 95-10 rego !.

BUT
If total vucuum above airfoil if only 14.7 psi. Does the underside of airfoil need the total weight of a 2000 lb aitcraft to maintain lift ?. ( 2000LB PREASURE )

The diesels only have a very small amount of LPG Ontop of the diesel.
If the diesel runs out, it Can blow the motor, So a 100klgm tank is not needed, even when running for 400 klms at a time.

" Will switching to MoGas clean up a Jab combustion chamber after it has run for years on AvGas? "
Try a can of decoke that Subaru use to clean inside their heads.
OR
Convert to LPG, That's known to run very clean, even on dirty diesels, even makes them go super economy ( 14 lph down to 10 lph.

The wrights used " twist in the wing " to produce bank.
Not much drag there .

AND, THERE,S THE RUB !.
" it,s just not worth the hassle "
Which is why RAA is going GA.
With dealer,s pushing for greater ' whatever sells Their machines '.

Lots more money to the Bureaucrats.
I Was 72 klgms when first started my build, after medical problems, and my hip replacement I,m now 97 klgms .
AND still not climbed into my Dream machine. LoL
Need a bigger wing to get me off the ground, I suspect !.
OR a Trike wing, they have lots of wing area.

My thoughts when first reading the Hummel specs, Seems a lot have had a bad "landing " but few, very few fatalities,
Not just slow stall but an Engineered crumple Airframe, as one survivor said "like the airframe folding over to protect me ".
Sounds like a good plane, pity that dreaded " wing load " wasn,t in the specifications.

The biggest snag with all the legislation is that most Australian People have gained a bit more weight than the rules of long ago Allowed for.

High performance with a sub 50 hp motor, can we get good speed and economy with that ?.
Of the 16 HB,s building in Australia how many moved to the 95-55 register?.

I Can build my own,
BUT
Only to RAA specifications, not a whisker out !, or it,s over to GA experimental.
How mant aircraft display That " Wing load " that 95-10 has to abide by.

A bit big for the Old " JetX " motors ?.
I had a " 707 " powered by the old JetX,went quiet well, better than " elastic catapult " to get up to Safe hight.

Look, Im saying way before 2020.
RAA was pushing for GA aircraft getting on their register.
BIGGER & MORE EXPENSIVE.
Use more fuel, great for that 10% tax, the government will not mind.
Higher training, good for those schools that last the move to "GA Recreation ".

Even the OLDER farts are still Doddering in their sheds.
The Bureaucrats have killed off our (OLD FARTS) flying and if recreational flying goes under the RAA wing, IT too will be annihilated.
Their empire building will be at odds to flying for FUN !.
