Have you ever heard of the STAGGER EZE?

Postby Airshow_lover » Fri Aug 25, 2006 7:22 pm

This has to be one of the coolest home-built i've ever seen. Of course, If you attended OshKosh you might have seen it parked right behind show center. I am lucky enough to Live In LaVergne (or basically nashville) TN where the plane is based. Just  yesterday i saw it take off from our local airport. For those of you who don't know what it is,  Basically, its a modified cozy where the right seat is staggered (hence stagger-eze) a bit behind the left, and the back right seat was removed.

If you ever get to see it it's worth walking over and seeing it.

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

Not heard of it before. The staggered seating arrangement is basically the same idea as the 1946 Tipsy Trainer. http://www.planecheck.com/index.asp?ent=da&id=5250&cor=y

Nothing much is new in aviation.

There was a pretty good article about the Stagger EZ in EAA Sport Aviation last year. Very pretty plane, I like canards anyway.
