And if the engine quits, you want to be in the Long-EZ, not
the Glasair -- it glides much better. That's a questionable statement!! Compare the following for survivability in an accident: * slower touchdown speed * deformation of the structure to absorb energy * lack of intrusions into the crew area (survivable space) Looks to me like the Glasair would be much more survivable... not that I'm personally interested in running the experiments Ed "I'm supposed to teach a class on this stuff next term" Wischmeyer
