What you mention should be on the CD from Dick Rutan. I have a set of
"Long" plans, but no serial number and no templates. Effective as an
"assembly manual" though.

Have you guy's heard that Muhlbauer has a certified 3 blade constant speed
prop for "Longs" ? Apparently they ran the prop on a Swiss Long to achieve
the certification. It shortens both the takeoff and rollout dramatically,
which must be a pretty big factor in a mountainous country like Switzerland.
Meanwhile it's been around the world twice !! You can read about the plane,
the pilot and his round the world trip he

I have a set of E-Racer plans and I have flown the prototype with Shirl.

It
is an awesome airplane. I would not attempt to build an E-Racer without
having a copy of the Long-EZ plans around though. There are a lot of

little
details and how-to's on the Long-EZ plans that are directly applicable to
the E-Racer.
