REFLECTOR: Velocity 20B update

[Al Gietzen]

I have a Std. RG IO-360 CS MT prop...

Alan Shaw built it in 1992...

Wing span at rudder trailing edge is 348.5 inches...29.04 ft.

Canard span at trailing edge is 162 inches...13.5 ft.
The elevator is 154 inches... NO CUFF.... Runs out of elevator on landing at

75 knots ias with 400 lbs. in the front seat... At 170 kts the elevator is 
1/2 inch down elevator..(trailing edge up 1/2 inch)... Sparrow Strainer 
configured to push trailing edge of elevator up the faster you go...

Best... Steve

Very interesting.  Do you know where the CG is for that condition?  I've
been flying at about 117 - 118 inches.
