Aeronautical Engineering Help needed
Hello,
I am looking into modifying one of the canard designs like the COZY MkIV and wanted to know what the best way to ensure that what changes I am proposing are sound and will result in a craft that will exhibit similar flight charteristics but with increase in performance (range, gross weight, acrobatic strength, etc...) Are there any software programs out there that would assist in the design changes? Any modelling software to show what affect the changes would have? Thanks! Marc

Once again I'm reminded why I don't bother to post here much anymore. Since
you gave no indication of ever having met, corresponded, or owning a set of Cozy plans (like I have) there was no way of detecting your version of sarcasm. It came off as simply being another one of your brainless comments. Oh, and on the Techumseh, I was wrong, it has an oil pump. I was right, however, that canting it in the direction talked about by the questioner would still allow the oil to sit in the cylinder and remove the oil from being a useful item unless grossly overfilled. But thanks for being predictable anyway. How long did it take you to find my mistake? I found it the next day, but since it didn't change the opinion I gave on the mounting angle being a bad thing, I never thought about it again. John Stricker "Larry Smith" wrote in message ...

John Stricker When I first started posting here several years ago, I never even thought about blocking senders. Today, I have found blocking a "few" people improves the signal to noise ratio, enough, that it makes things tolerable once again. As a famous commercial once said, "try it, you'll like it". :-) -- Jim in NC
