  1. Hi doc I’m really glad to have found this thread, its funny and exciting how things like this happen. At the moment I am in Florida visiting family and looking forward to going to the Sun n Fun expo. Hopefully seeing a few other EZ flyers there as well. I was born in England but grew up in Chicago, I moved back to the UK 17 years ago and your right I am a professional musician and own a music shop. The G-MUSO reg was a real bonus. I also travel around the world as a music examiner for www.Rockschool.co.uk and was in New Zealand working for a month last year, only just passing through Australia. I had heard that the famous Mike Moran was one of the builders of MUSO but didn’t have any more info than that. Wing Commander Willis owned MUSO for around 12 years before me and someone else for a short period before I bought it. Willis was one of the BBMF pilots flying the Spitfire and other awesome aircraft. He only sold MUSO because he was apprently moving abroad. I totally agree with how fantastic it is for a site like this to connect pilots from all around the world. I will email you soon. My email is [email protected] and some MUSO pics are on my Facebook page if you do the social media thing. https://www.facebook.com/dan.gay.125 Take care and talk soon. Hi Maj Thanks for the warm welcome and how great for you to have met the Rutan’s. As you probably know its the 40th anniversary of the VEz this year, and Burt is releasing his latest and last aircraft design at Oshkosh. I’m hoping he will make an appearance at Sun n Fun as well. I agree there is something really special about his designs and can’t wait to see this new one. Thanks again.
  2. Hello Aviators This is my first post... I am the current owner of Long Ez G-MUSO and was fascinated to stumble across this thread. I'm not the tornado pilot, he was a previous owner. I only have about 400hrs on various types of aircraft. I fly out of Seething Airfield EGSJ with a 800m runway and airborne at the 550 mark. It lands much shorter if the speed is right. Sitting high in the seat with my head about an inch from the canopy as recommended I find the visibility fine on final, even with a high angle of attack. My first few flights in MUSO were scary/exciting as I didn't really have any instruction, just a little bit in of back seat time in another LE and the POH. But over all I think its fairly EZ to fly and I agree with everything EZPilot said. Its was just a little intimidating at first. I should have my display authority on it completed soon and will display it initially at the Seething Charity Air Day this summer. http://seething-airfield.com/airday.php I love flying this Rutan designed plane and it ticks all the boxes for me, and I would really like to chat with docjell sometime about the build of this great aircraft. Thanks Dan G
