Canard Aviation Inc. offers repair, construction and training services for composite aircraft. The company specializes in Rutan based pusher aircraft such as Cozy, Velocity, LongEz and Varieze. Having built a Cozy IV himself, President John Slade has learned a thing or two about composite construction. Using the corporation's Cozy to travel from client to client, John is now available to help other builders do anything from get started to get finished.
If you are looking for information from the Pilot's point of view, David Orr tries to support all the canard builders out there, whether Cozy, E-Racer, Long EZ, Varieze, Defiant, Quickie, Dragonfly. As part of that support he runs a club which was originally centered on the West Coast and he tries to track all the builders, no matter what they are building or how far along, for mutual support. New and would be builders of Cozy IV who come to Aircraft Spruce and don't know all of the active Canard clubs can contact David Orr to find the nearest building support, the nearest place to get a "Spirit Ride" in a similar plane and just about all around information that is current and interesting to builders and flyers. David Orr, of Squadron III, can be reached at 949-939-1479(Cell) or Canardfinder@att.net. There is also a good snail mail newsletter for active builders by Central States Association - contact Terry Schubert at: jschuber@juno.com
These are our only approved suppliers! Our approval means that we chose them based upon their reputation, and that they agreed to make parts (or supply materials) only to our specifications.
Archives of past discussions are a tremendous resource for new builders. Some builders have also provided search engines for the archives. Prospective Cozy builders are permitted to join the Cozy mail list.
