Ok guys. make some popcorn, get a cold beverage, prop up your feet and get ready to be bored. :)). I will try to answer Jims questions as best that I can. My main protocol during this whole process was and still is.. First. I want safety and durability. second comes weight and a close third is cost. Keeping it in those confines has served me well and kept me alive,,, so far G As I recall you posted on the RV-list one time that your airplane was over weight and scary to fly? Jerry |

Jerry All I state is the facts. My plane is heavier then the factory 801 simply because it has more options on it. I NEVER said it was overweight................... As for scary, if I posted that during the first few hours of my test flights in my plane then, yeah, I was for sure leary of the outcome. That experience has made me a better pilot and hopefully a better person. When you test fly an overpowered, one of a kind aircraft you will understand, until then just chill out and enjoy what some of us do to advance aviation.. Tailwinds.. Ben Haas N801BH |

Ben Haas N801BH -----new post begins-----OE didn't do it again------- Actually, most homebuilts are slightly "chubby" and a longer equipment list is one of the three most common reasons--the other two being slightly larger engines and fancier interior and exterior finishes. In any case, the term "overweight" would be preposterous since you would seem to have sufficient authority to reduce the usefull load, document the performance (and strength if appropriate) to a higher maximum weight, or any combination of your own choosing.
