I thought you might like the details.The guy who built the plane is not on the net.Three piece wingLong fuselageSoob EA81Direct drive60X32 wood Tennessee propFord Pinto carbHonda civic rad mounted under engine mount3000 RPM take off2100 cruse at 70mph750 FPM climb solo (no dual yet) this is a guess because he has no VSI. Heis a 3000 hour pilot and a CFI.Better climb than a C65The engine mount is 4" longer than the "A" mount and the wing is "as farback as I can get it" CG is per plains nowHe has built 13 other airplanes and really likes this one.
