FLIGHT CHOPS DISCLAIMER:
I am a "weekend warrior" private pilot, I fly for fun with no intentions of going commercial. I have had my PPL for over 15 years, but still consider each flight a learning experience - I generally take detailed notes after each flight to remind myself what went well or what I could do to improve.... Having the GoPro cameras to record flights like this is invaluable. I find these self analysis videos very helpful in my constant quest to improve, and am happy to share. Feedback is invited; however, please keep it positive.

Varieze pilot here: absolutely brilliant. LEZ Kyle is a brave one letting a noob fly front seat :-) What an experience! First canard flight AND landing at OSH with Chatter and not knowing what to expect. A bit like my first solo in the VE which had all the pressure, but not the extras. I have done straight rolls, but the add some rudder is interesting and will try. The air to air was awesome especially the landing! Great Job for a first flight! I still will be staying away from loops :-) Thank You for a GREAT video!

@MrJdsenior
@MrJdsenior 3 жыл бұрын
Got it, also there is a belly brake for decreasing L/D to get the thing down over objects, as it's practically a low performance sail plane at idle (or off). It shouldn't be left down on the ground, though, as it partially blocks the flow to the intake cooling air duct (not physically, but aero flow wise). The differential nature of the tip draggers also serves as high speed ground steering, like a rudder would normally, since the brakes are at the bottom, as you say..just in a differential pedal mode.

@MrJdsenior 3 жыл бұрын
@@TD_YT066 No flaps, but there is a belly brake on the bottom of the fuselage, to allow you to increase the descending glide slope, otherwise you'd have a hell of a time getting in anywhere, as the thing glides not too far from a low performance sail plane, even engine off (prop stopped). You do still flare though, but not as much as a normal configured aircraft. You can certainly make ultra smooth landings with an EZ, though, not only, as my instructor used to call them "hemorrhoid checkers", when you plant solidly for various reasons, or just a botched flare.

Thx Chops for this video. I've heard that the LongEZ design of Burt Rutan is the most economical of planes (8L/h) and has a top speed of 300km/h(+) and range of 3 200km/ 2 000miles. (With a ferry tank in the backseat its range is 7 700km! [+/- 5 000miles]) BUT on YT it said a man takes about 5 hours to learn and practice to change for a normal plane to the Long EZ. Burt Rutan also made the Model 74 Defiant. like a Long EZ with an extra engine in the front! For some strange and unknown reason that plane is not very popular? I thinks is a Fantastic and Save idea!
@ParadigmUnkn0wn

The Long-EZ has amazing range, but not amazing comfort as you can see. What good is an airplane that can fly for 12 hours if you can't stand to sit in for for more than 5 hours at a time. The Cozy and Velocity expand the cabin quite a bit and are quite popular even today, especially the Velocity XL. All of them have been what I'd consider successful, especially considering almost all of the Long-EZs and Cozys out there were built from plans or very basic kits. It's not uncommon to spend well over a thousand hours on shaping and sanding. The glass-on-foam construction isn't difficult, just tedious.
@buckmurdock2500
@buckmurdock2500 11 ай бұрын

They are a mad aircraft but like most of Rutan's aircraft fly well and look different! Great one to add to you log book.

So I have always seen the Long Ez and thought that was a little weird. But it is EVEN WEIRDER than I imagined. That said it is a really cool aircraft and I enjoyed learning about it and watching you fly it.

As a kid I recall at least one, but I think two, of these that would regularly fly around over my hometown in northeast Wyoming. We loved seeing the "backwards planes!" 😄
