    Damn, too many projects to fit in such a short life. I am far from finished yet so watch this space.
    The Long-Eze is such a dare I say perfect aircraft for what it is. I do not see how adding another engine forward could help it unless you were making it a side by side sitting configuration. I would like to see what you are thinking. We have two of them and there is a rather large community of them at our airport.
    I too am fascinated by the new "drone" type personal aircraft possibilities.
