Message > Think it will work out ?
Not a chance in hell, Rusty. The structure to hold an engine at the front
simply isnt there. It would be a VERY major redesign, and would probably end
up too heavy to fly. On top of the that, the weight and balance would be all
wrong. I think the best way to put 2 engines on an EZ would be in pods on
the strakes.
