Long-EZ N13YV (serial #2137), "Invictus", is a great source of enjoyment
for me and my family. Over the years, she has taken us to new places, met great new people, and provided a lifetime of wonderous
sights.
She has flown over 2,200 hours, 1,875 of them since I purchased her
on March 2, 1990. We've wandered the US and Canada from coast to coast, and everywhere in between. We've seen sunsets, sunrises,
wildlife, boredom and excitement. I've met great friends, experienced incredible beauty and serenity, and scared the pants
off myself more than once.

This website is dedicated to honoring the plane, her systems, and the
places that she has yet to take me.
I would have to say that I enjoy working on the plane as much as I
enjoy flying her. I always have a list of things I want to change or improve. As long as I get to fly her every once in a
while, I am pretty happy.
I intend to use this website to share some of my positive experiences,
improvements, and things I would recommend avoiding in hopes that it will make aviation in general and canard designs in particular
more enjoyable for everyone.
