    Ridge Runner 1?

    I also have to sell my Ridge Runner Model 2 Project since the airstrip where I keep it is sold. Needs tube repairs following an off-field landing. I'll put an ad up later but meanwhile, details are here:- Ridge Runner Project.. Located in S.Ontario

    Fisher FP404?

    You could try calling the factory in Brampton On. (At Brampton Airport) But recently they announced that the company is for sale and they will only be providing plans in the future.

    Problems from Wing Root Treatment?

    Maybe I should explain further. The airplane on the left (which is my own airplane) is exactly as it was designed with the open wing root. The triangular section between the wings is removable so that the wings can be easily folded for storage or transport. This idea originated from Dean...

    Problems from Wing Root Treatment?

    What elevator control problems, if any, might result from the open wing root design depicted in the first photo, particularly during slow flight, such as when landing and also with the addition of flap? Presumably, the second photo shows an attempt to improve the airflow.

    Ridge Runner 1?

    One of my questions regarding the Model 2 is about the allowable CG range. It seems my airplane was considerably nose heavy, even with the seat moved 4" behind the rearmost attach point. Add to that the fact that the PO weighed 230# and I'm 180 making things worse. I can't see any reason for it...

    Ridge Runner 1?

    Another Ridge Runner owner here, watching this thread with interest. Mine is a 2007 model 2 with a 503 and has some damage due to an engine failure shortly after I bought it. I have to decide whether or not to fix it but reading these stories doesn't give me much hope for getting help (or...
