Charlie,
Thanks
for the email. I thought I had put the answer to your
question in the instructions/welcome letter on page 1. I’ll
have to go and take another look. If it’s buried in the
fine print, or I forgot to put it in there, I apologize.
Anyhow,
if you have more than one aircraft (either under
construction or flying), you may take the survey once for
each aircraft. Each time you take the survey, consider only
one aircraft at a time when giving your answers (of course
the personal info will be the same). There is a feature I’m
currently trying to disable, though that’s not letting
people take the survey multiple times from the same
computer. If you’re not able to take it a second time
regarding your other aircraft, I apologize.
I
hope this answers your question. Thanks for the feedback… I
know the questionnaire if far from perfect, but hopefully
“good-nuf.”

Hi Kory,
I humbly suggest that you re-evaluate the structure of your
survey (or educate me...). The survey seems very ambiguous on
what answer is expected from each question. I own & fly a
Lyc powered homebuilt, and I'm building a rotary powered one.
The order of the questions causes me to question which one
you're asking about, so I'm unsure about how to answer each
question.
Thanks,
Charlie

help
My name is
Kory Klismith. I am currently working to finish my master's
degree through Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University. To
complete my degree I need to complete a research project.
As part of this project, I have devised an online
questionnaire using surveymonkey.com.
My project
focuses on safety and reliability of piston and rotary
engines used in experimental aircraft. The survey is open
to anybody who currently owns/flies an experimental aircraft
or has a project under construction. The questions are
straight forward, and almost entirely multiple choice.
If you can
spare a few minutes, I request your assistance in completing
the short questionnaire at the following address:

If you know of
anybody else who's not a regular to this forum that
builds/operates experimental aircraft, requesting your
assistance in forwarding this link to them. No personally
identifiable information will be collected. This is
strictly for educational purposes. In case you’re wondering
about my background, I am a pilot by trade… just working on
my degree as time permits. My wife and I are building a
Murphy Elite.
If you have
any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me
via email:

Thank you very
much for your time!
Respectfully,
