    e THE 'issue No, 1 July, 1963 Khen PETE; BOWRS designed FLU BABY, proved it a safe, stable airplane, and made the plans available at a reasonable price, he brought flying within reach of a lot of people who otherwise would never have flown or owned an airplane. We have a lot to thank him for, Consequently, any publication, however modest, dealing with Fly Baby, should begin with an introduction by Pete. A mSSAGE TO ALL FLY BABY BUILDERS AND PILOTS from PEER M. BOFIERS, FLU BABY designer, This is the first issue of THE FLY BABY BULLETIN. UPDEN FERGUSON Ss to be commended for his initiative and industry in offering to compile, edit, and publish such a document on a monthly basis. It is his hope and mine that the BULLETIN will, with the help of the builders and flyers, become a valuable publication and a worth-while and interesting source of information about F"LU BABY builders, their problems, and their accomplishments, While some information can be provided by the designer, most of it will have to come from YOU, the reader. Don't feel that you have to be a "Pro" writer in order to have something published, You're among friends and the BULLETIN will be as informal as a bull session out in thb shop. If you are having problems in finding materials, or have stumbled onto a good source, send in the word. If you had construction problems and licked them on your own, others will be grateful for the information. If you just want to sound off on the joys of flying your own FLU BABY, here's your soapbox! One personal benefit that I expect to derive from the existence of the BULLETIN is a great reduction in ,the personal "Problem" and "Where'hail that has to be answered.

After Pete saw this item, he iirote in to say that there are much easier ways of solving the problem than building in a major fixed component with delib- erate misalrgnment, Resides, what do you do if you find you have put in too much offset or not enough? The anseer is a siiriple fixed tab on the trailing edge of the rudder. Take a piece of .020 to .032 sheet a3uminum about 2 by inches, Drill three lj8" holes along one edge as shown, and use wood screws to fasten this tab to the LEFT 9LllE of the rudder bow at the farthest-aft point on the bow. This should be aidway between the second and third ribs. Have at least 3/4" of the metal dgalnst the bow. k~thyour fingers, bend the projecting portior! of the tab to the left about iD degrees and make a test flight. This much offset should be about right f3r crulsrng fiight. You can't get a fixed tab like this (or an ofrset fin rrther) to trim your ship for all ilight conditions, so cruising is the most aeslraole. Tabs of the same srze can also be used on one elevator to make T1rnor adjusrmen~sco overall :rim that aren? tworth the trouble of resetting rhe horizontal stabslizer, ,lany pilots like to trim out to zero stick (or rudder) forces for every flight condition, Pete doesn' t, which is why he hasn't bothered with trim on his own ship.

  • Fly Baby 1A the Bowers FLY BABY 1A
    Heritage & Sport Aviation North Otago Pilot Notes Bowers Fly Baby 1a The Bowers FLY BABY 1a Description and Specifications The Fly Baby is a single-seat, open cockpit, folding-wing monoplane powered by engines ranging from 65 to 100 HP. It was originally designed in 1960 to compete in the first (and so far, only EAA design competition). It is built primarily of wood, with fabric covering. Most are powered by Continental A-65, C-75, C-85, or O-200 engines. Performance is sprightly; a bit better than that of, say, an Aeronca Champ. While a single-seat airplane, the Fly Baby isn't small. It has a wingspan just two feet less than a Cessna 150 and the same as a Tiger Moth. It's got a big cockpit. Pete Bowers is six feet two inches tall, and I (Ron Wantajja) weigh about 250 pounds. That gives you an idea of the range of sizes that can be accommodated. While no Pilot Notes as such exist, the following information has been gleaned largely from the “Unofficial Fly Baby Home Page” as maintained by Ron Wantajja of Seattle. See www.bowersflybaby.com Specifications Data from Plane and Pilot: 1978 Aircraft Directory General characteristics Crew: one pilot Length: 18.83 ft (5.74 m) Wingspan: 28.0 ft (8.54 m) Height: () Wing area: 120 ft² (12.24 m²) Empty weight: 605 lb (274 kg) Max. takeoff weight: 924 lb (419 kg) Powerplant: 1 × Continental C-85 flat-four engine, 85 hp (63.9 kW) (Our aircraft are powered by the Continental A65-8 engines) Performance Maximum speed: 120 mph (194 km/h) Cruise speed: 110 mph (178 km/h) Stall speed: 45 mph (73 km/h) Range: 300 mi (486 km) at 8,000 ft (2,438 m) Rate of climb: 1100 ft/min (5.6 m/s) Wing loading: 7.7 lb/ft² (34.2 kg/m²) Power/mass: 10.8 lb/hp (6.56 kg/kW) A Fly Baby Pilot Report I'm rather fond of this article...it was the first sale I made to KITPLANES magazine.
