    Lyc v. Conti

    Seems most of the planes I'm interested in take 180-200 hp. Most of the kit manufacturers recommend the Lyc O-360. Why? I would think that the Continental O-360 (6 cyl) would be much easier on the prop and airframe- would'nt it?:confused:

    Round vs. flush rivets

    Could some of the present "spam can" kitplanes out there ( RV's, Zodiacs , etc. ) be hammered together with flush rivets? Maybe space them closer together - Flush rivets are weaker. Or maybe bond and rivet like some jets? Would this gain any performance or do we need all of those little round VG's ?

    Howdy!

    New to the forum, thought i'd say hello. Not flying yet- figgered I'd get my ppl next year. Then maybe figure out what I want to DO with a plane, then maybe build or buy one. Hopefully, the right one.:p:
