     I was looking at your MM ... How far from the firewall are you
  mounting your engine?  I'll be mounting mine soon but I was going to
try
  to keep in as close as possible.

Mike,

My engine is mounted a little further aft than most mainly due to the
fact that the aircraft is streched 4.5" so calculations with weights put
it further aft.  Are you building a pusher?  Canards are very CG
sensitieve.

Joe

Hi Joe
  I didn't know you stretched it... Guess that would do it.  I'm
building a Long EZ, here are a couple of Pics... As soon as I can get it
back on the gear, probably by the end of the summer, Ill try to finish
the MM.  Probably a couple of years away from finishing... Still have to
build the strakes and rudders.  It's all about Time and Money!

Mike C.

Still going to use the vectored thrust idea Mike?
