EAA members here?
Just curious how many forum members were EAA members. My first dream of aircraft ownership was my dream of building a really sleek 4-place composite like a Glasair or Lancair - later I decided that my grass runway here on the farm would be a wee bit rough and short for something like that. My search for the best fit in the aviation world led me here - Maule country
I can't remember if I fired six shots, or only five.....

I've talked to the EAA and the FAA today regarding an "Experimental" Maule - and how to get to 51%. Apparently if I use a Maule wing and build a new fuselage along with new everything else I can get there. My fuselage has quite a bit of rust, so a new one is in order - I can't just rebuild or repair mine and get to 51%. Still working it out, I won't go down this road without knowing I can get where I need to be
This is the main guideline to be followed:

EAA
I've been an EAA member since 1996. I started on a Mustang II but had to sell the project due to Family matters. Started again in 2000 on a CH701/Zenith. Finished it in 2003. Flew it until 2007. Sold it and bought my present airplane (bought as an M5) I had it converted to a short wing MX7 two years ago.
It's not a 51% though.
I'm getting to the light sport age and I'd like to start building a Just Aircraft Super STOL.
Building was a real HOOT ! Can't wait to start again.
Love my MX7-235 too.
So much aviation so little time/money hahahahah.
Greg Miller (Bent Prop productions/BUSHWACKER) Did a complete makeover and it's Exp. category.

Experimental Maule
My Maule MX7 was ground up restoration and its normal category. I spoke with Mr. Miller once at Camas Washougal, Wa and he said that it was difficult getting an experimental category sign off for his "Bushwhacker".
I guess, if I could, I'd try to lighten up the Maule but other than that I can't think of any major improvements.....Maybe a folding panel. I'm getting old and stiff and crawling upsidedown and bent to get up in there is not so much fun. hahahahahah
