1 Meadow Lak e Airport - Colorado Springs, Colorado Pike s Peak Flyer The Voice of EAA 72 July 2008 Larry Dale Brings Home the Sparrow Sport Special Larry took delivery recently of his new single place kit-built sport plane designed by Carlson. An attractive little plane, at 600 lbs empty weight, it cruises at mph and has a stall speed of 30 mph. The engine is a Japanese HKS 60 hp, 4-cycle. Sold by Skyline Technologies, the Carlson Sparrow Sport Special is available as a tri-gear or tail wheel. Soon he ll be taxiing around to get used to the tail dragger again. First Flight by John Scott The APIS is finally flying. I flew off my Test program in Moriarty in May. Robert Mudd agreed to do the first 2 flights to check out the airplane. Robert is a very experienced glider pilot and has flown APIS before. The first flights were all done with 4,000 AGL tows. After each flight it was back to the hanger for some adjustments and tweaking. After Roberts 2 flights, I made 2 flights the first a simple 30 minute sled ride. On the second I went looking for some thermals and did some thermaling. Since it was 10:30 in the morning, the thermals weren t very strong, but we needed to get the flight in before the wind started up in earnest. Photos by Sandy and Richard Martin operating limits of my Air Worthiness Certification required me to fly 10 hrs within 50nm of Moriarty before I could fly anyplace else. I also needed to have 5 takeoffs and landings. I had about 2.3 hrs in the first four flights and need another 7.7 to complete (Continued page 4) Moriarty was having the same high winds as Colorado, so there were numerous days I was ready to fly, but the cross winds were just too strong.

4 PAGE 4 PIKE S PEAK FLYER THE VOICE OF EAA 72 (Continued from page 1) First Flight by John Scott the Phase I testing. After the first 4 flights, I came home for about a week before returning to Moriarty about mid-may. After returning to Moriarty, I pulled the APIS out of the trailer and assembled it. Checked everything out and prepared to fly. The weather cooperated and I was able to fly 3 of the next 4 days to complete the test program. After returning to Colorado Springs, it was 3 weeks before we had a flyable day at Meadowlake. I now have 6 flights in my APIS and I m averaging just under 2 hours per flight. My longest flight has been 3.1 hours. So far the APIS has exceeded my expectations. It has been very easy to fly. Between the flaps and air brakes, approach control is very good and the plane will come down quite steeply. I have found no bad behaviors. It has a benign stall. If I slow gradually, it simple shudders and the sink rate jumps way up. If I pull the nose up, it stalls straight ahead after a little buffet. Recovery from incipient spins is easy and quick. I do seem to need a little extra top aileron when thermaling, this may be because of the flaperons or it may be due to not having the seals installed on the flaperons. It accelerate quickly but is quite controllable. Pitch is sensitive, but not more so than a I do have the seals installed on the elevator. With 10 deg of flaps, I can thermal below 40 kts, as long as it s not too gusty. All of my instruments work well. The panel layout works well. I love the Cambridge 302. Every flight is logged automatically. The averager is wonderful. I strongly recommend it. I find it makes working thermals much easier. I did discover that I my Tasman vario is a meters/second model, not the knots I ordered. I will be shipping it back to Australia next week to have it reset to knots at no charge 3 years after I bought it. My thanks to both OxAero and Tasman for their outstanding service. The EDS Oxygen system works like a charm. It even beeps at me when I m concentrating hard in a thermal and start breathing thru my mouth. It automatically starts providing O2 when I reach 10,000 ft. I seem to be using roughly about 100 psi of O2 per hour. While the plane is now Air Worthy and Flyable, I can t claim it is done. I still need to finish the finish. The fuselage and vertical tail still have all of the overspray for the final painting that needs to be sanded off. If you run your hand over them they feel about lik 400 grit sandpaper. I need to do the buffing, polishing and waxing on the entire plane. The rudder and flaperons still need the seals installed. I need to build a few more jigs for rigging and de-rigging. I need to build some tie downs and a land out kit. I ll work on those tasks as time permits, but for now, if I can fly, that s where I ll be. EAA Chapter 43 Seeks Presenters for Homebuilding Forum Hello Fellow EAA ers, As you are probably aware the Rocky Mountain Regional Fly-in has been cancelled for this year. That is indeed sad however it created the opportunity for us to make a small move back to the roots of our homebuilding heritage. In this spirit EAA Chapter 43 will be hosting a buildings forum on the tentative date of Saturday, October 18, At this moment we are not sure where or what will be on the agenda. That is where you come in. Right now we are asking for guest speakers, and people to teach some of the forums. If you have some building talents that you would like to share, or if you have some knowledge of subjects (aviation related) that you would like to speak on, please let me know. I can be reached at horizongreg@yahoo.com. Remember that the EAA was started with lots of generous sharing of information. It is also where we are strongest. Thanks Much, Greg Hall President EAA Chapter 43

6 PAGE 6 Late or Missed Your Last Newsletter? I always mail myself a newsletter just as a point of reference for when you are most likely receiving yours. So I knew when it hadn t shown up on Tuesday that something was wrong. My hopes that it was just the Peyton Post Office were dashed when folks started showing up at the meeting with the saying, Didn t get a newsletter. I m used to seeing it delivered the next day after dropping in the mail so I expected we d receive no later than Monday. I did receive mine on Wednesday. The Post Office has no clue as to what went wrong but agree that is an exception - at $.42 postage, I hope so. Chapter Picnic We all had a good time at the picnic. Thanks to Mike Jerger we enjoyed a delicious selection of food from the grill accompanied by your best potluck dishes and fruit. Thanks to Esther Smith for organizing another fun day for all of us. PIKE S PEAK FLYER THE VOICE OF EAA 72 President s Message going to Oshkosh this year, but I d like to have all of you that do continue the tradition of a chapter photo and plan to meet at the old control tower at noon on Thursday. Someone please send me a photo. See you Tuesday...Sandy Member on the Mend By now you ve probably learned that Hurstle Stidham took a fall and has been laid up awhile.
