Anyone building/flying a Ridge Runner?

[Russell Duffy]

Greetings,

I was looking at the Ridge Runner 3 as a potential next project, but there
seems to be very little talk of them on the newsgroup, builders sites,
forums, etc. I'd love to hear some comments about them.

Thanks,
Rusty

I'd like to see you stuff 300hp as per the OP into a ridge runner...:)

You lost me here John. What's "the OP"? I'm afraid 300 HP in a Ridge
Runner is a bit extreme, even by my standards :-)

The local EAA Tech, Erol Dow, in Northern Maine is building one and putting
a Franklin engine in it. He is close to finished I think.

I will forward your post to him.

Are they selling plans for the Ridge Runner or just kits?

Thanks. It would be interesting to hear what he has to say about it. If he
doesn't want to post here, he could email me as well.

Cheers,

As far as I know, they're only selling kits, but I've been told they're VERY
nice kits.

Well if they could make kits cost about 100 bucks a kit , I may could afford
to go that route! HAHAHA I do remember seeing there website about a year or
so ago, and it is a nice looking airplane.

replying to an old thread here (my internet access has been down a
week), but OP means "original poster" or post.
