Riley Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 For hangar space utilization planning I need to know the footprint measurements of a Bantam B22. Don't have access to one to measure & Google gives only length (9m) and w/span (5.5m) but nothing about size (height & width) of empennage. I'd be grateful if anyone out there could provide the necessary numbers. Tks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Maj Millard Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 Just a guess, but I'd say the width of the tail would be a bit under 3 meters, and the top of the fin and rudder would be about 3-3.5 mts above the ground......................................................................Maj...

Riley Posted October 26, 2011 Author Share Posted October 26, 2011 Maj & 80K's. Based on your info, we calculate that the weightshift and the B22 will peacefully co-exist in the available space so we're bringing the trike in from the country on Sunday. Thanks for your assistance gentlemen. Cheers Riley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riley Posted December 14, 2011 Author Share Posted December 14, 2011 was this a question on my behalf?? Assuming that 'trikepilot' and 'Kathy B' are one and the same, then yes, the query was inspired by your hangaring requirements. I was chasing info earlier to confirm that the hangar in discussion would accomodate both your flying machines. It eventuates that there's enough floor space left over for you to go out an buy a third aircraft! Merry Christmas. cheers Riley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
