The Future of Rutan Designs Symposium AirVenture 2019
I wanted to build one but it just takes too long to build compare to the aluminum kits that are out in the market.
That's actually untrue. Read the article on oiur website titled "Quick-build is a state of mind" www.rutanaircraftflyingexperience.org/post/quick-build-is-a-state-of-mind
Rough River is an awesome park. You guys go there again in the future I will definitely come. A dear friend, now passed, built and flew a Long EZ.
I love canard aircraft. I wish there were more available on MS Flight Sim. The Long-EZ is on there as payware but the rudders aren't accurate. Neither are the stall characteristics. Fast, aerobatic, with a long range. Incredible value for performance. I've been a fan since the first time I thought I saw a plane flying backwards when I was 5 years old and no one believed me lol.
Как поступить в ваш университет?
Excited when I first saw this. Thought for a second might see my Long-EZ. Then noticed it was 2022. I was there in N85PK around 1986. Guess I was a few years early. 1800 +++ trouble free hours in the Long-EZ. Heart Attack ended this pilot's Flying. Did get my Medical back but got more difficult each year. So here we are in 2023 and I am still above ground. Just no longer able to defy gravity.
Good to hear from you Peter, I was there in 86 also. Ryszard
VaryEze's are just the coolest little planes ever.
What is the kit name @ 4:49 and where do I get one?
It’s a Rutan VariViggen. They aren’t “kits” they’re made from plans. You actually have to build it! There are plans available and unfinished projects if you’re seriously interested contact us. RutanAFE@gmail.com
What altitude are these typically flown at for a long haul flight? I fly a Velocity XL in Flight Simulator and I’m curious what typical real life flight profiles are like, for those home-built unpressurized aircraft, and how it feels inside at high altitude.
above 11,5 is impractical due to the oxygen requirements but for best efficiency most people likely cruise between 6 and 11
i got to see these. never seen so many in one place
1:41 what is this plane?
it is a Rutan VariViggen - found by its registration number.
No Quickies 😢
That Viggen is a rare sight!
that is pretty cool
0:46 Is that a bag clip being used as a control lock?
Those things just look dumb, only having a retractable nose wheel.
oh well, Cessna's look dumber, with nothing retractable
Awesome!
That video was much too short.
RUTAN is a legend in his own time . U S A
I also like to attach randome USA on the end of my sentences too. U S A
I’ve fished there and landed there. Never knew y’all had a fly in till I saw a canard wing plane in Colorado. The guy just got back from there. So I’m not but a short 40min flight away and I plan to make it down there some day and check out y’all’s handy work. So cool.
Thanks! Look forward to see you there next year. Always the last weekend in September.
Rough River was an absolute blast this year! Thanks for flying with me Reese!
How do the rutan birds fly are they agile stabil can you side slip them are they fun??
They are a blast to fly and slip just fine!
Great job on the video. Nice to see Chris from our RAFE class made it there. I missed this one, but hoping to fly 112TG in next year!
Really an awesome experience. Building airplanes should be more common.
Great video, Is that your rollover structure where the camera is mounted? Cheers
Yes I believe that’s where it was mounted.
@@rutanaircraftflyingexperie6303 Was that a modification to and existing Aircraft or was it built with during the original build? I ask because I am looking into options for our VariEz. Something a bit more substantial. Thanks for your time.
Oh you’re asking about the headrest! Yes that’s not per plans. Best to email. RutanAFE@gmail.com
