The landing gear and cowl are a dead giveaway that it is not a Total Composites Extra.

WOW!!

Badge · 09-14-2006, 09:20 PM

the fact that the plane is an Extra 300L and not an Extra 300 is the dead giveaway that this plane isnt a total composte airframe.

Actually if you look at it, the wing is up higher than an Extra 300L. I think the plane is an Extra 300 (mid wing 2 seat) but no idea who makes it....

i just spent 15 min looking at the similarities between this plane and a weimo....i think badge is right

Perhaps we are not on the same page here. I am talking about the Composite plane builder out of Utah, and I think it is called Total Composites. I just saw the plane in person last weekend. Theirs is a 300, not a 300L, and is 37%. I know for sure that the plane pictured here is also a 300 - no doubt about that.

There are other pics for comparison. Another real dead giveaway is the mondo thick stab on the TC 300

Umm... Those baffles are nice, but as the air comes in, where does it go down and flow out?

3Dkid330 · 09-15-2006, 02:37 AM

Very nice airplane!

I'm thinking that it is the Weimo, check out the very fine vertical line halfway down the tail over the B on the tail number. I read earlier that the Weimo can come with a removeable tail section if the builder wants it, looks like the line might be where the two halves attach. (It mentions about the separatable tail on the 46% Extra 300 page)

Whatever airplane it is, it looks great! Nice clean installation and finishing.

Have a look at the hinging on the ailerons totaly differant

Badge · 09-15-2006, 09:15 AM

Its not a Total Composites, their's is no where near scale like the one we have here.

youngflyer · 09-15-2006, 09:49 AM

it looks like a wiemo. there model utilizes a 4 cylinder engine too. i think a 37% is to small for a 4 cyl.
