[runruh]

Hello everyone,
I am new here and would like to introduce myself.
My name is Rick Unruh and I am part of the EAA Chapter 63 in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. I'm sorry but my Canadian grade school French language skills are not good at all so I am using the translate feature to compose this.
A group us are working on completing an Emeruade. We just finished painting the plane. We hope to be doing engine and taxi testing this summer. If that checks out OK then we hope to do first flights in September. The next thing I am working on is the Rudder pedal and toe braking system.
The engine we have for the plane is a Lycoming 0235. we have stripped it down for inspection and are now just ready to reassemble it.
I look forward to reading more on the forum and learning from the experience here.
I have been trying to add pictures of our project but I am not having success.



Bonjour à tous,
Je suis nouveau ici et je voudrais me présenter.
Je m'appelle Rick Unruh et je fais partie du chapitre 63 de l'EAA à Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. Je suis désolé, mais mes compétences linguistiques en français à l'école primaire canadienne ne sont pas bonnes du tout, alors j'utilise la fonction de traduction pour composer ceci. : lol:
Un groupe sur lequel nous travaillons pour terminer une Emeruade. Nous venons de finir de peindre l'avion. Nous espérons faire des essais de moteurs et de taxis cet été. Si cela vous convient, nous espérons faire les premiers vols en septembre. La prochaine chose sur laquelle je travaille est la pédale de gouvernail et le système de freinage des orteils.
Le moteur que nous avons pour l'avion est un Lycoming 0235. Nous l'avons dépouillé pour inspection et sommes maintenant prêts à le remonter.
J'ai hâte de lire davantage sur le forum et d'apprendre de l'expérience ici.
J'ai essayé d'ajouter des photos de notre projet mais je n'ai pas réussi.







Cheers, Rick

Welcome Rick,

My english is not so good either, but I believe a little better than the free translation software I found on the web so far.
Keep on posting both original text and automatic translation because it is much helpful to refer to the first one when the translation is not clear.

Of course we will make our best to answer your questions.
We are also very interested to see pictures of your Emeraude and the work you have done so far.

Jean-Claude Meunier, from St Tite, Quebec, is another Canadian friend who as built a very nice CP605 “Super Diamant” and flown it for more than 100 hours, counting…
Jean-Claude is also finishing an Emeraude, and perhaps could you contact him through this website to exchange some information.

Enjoy flying,
Philippe Dejean

Hi, Rick !

On the previous message, I made à mistake writing :
"Jean-Claude Meunier... ...as built a very nice CP605 “Super Diamant” and flown it for more than 100 hours, counting…"

I hope Jean-Claude will excuse me, I should have written :
"Jean-Claude Meunier... ...as built a very nice CP605 “Super Diamant” and flown it for more than 1000 hours, counting…"

His CP605 is registered C-GUMM

Bons vols
Philippe Dejean
