This is a Test Release of the first Update of Rutan Canard Homebuilts for X-Plane. This first release is ONLY for version 10.22 or higher. There WILL be releases in v9.70, just not quite yet.

Because Installation Docs are not yet prepared, this initial release may not be suited for those who are not familiar with installing X-Plane and “Add-On” Aircraft, nor for those who are having difficulty getting the simulator to work properly.

What I would really like to have is a critique of this Long-EZ by EZ Drivers who fly a similar aircraft. With some good feedback on handling, engine-out glide performance, temps and fuel flows, I can get the O-320 Long-EZ tweaked and proceed with similar settings for the VariEze and Cozy.

Simply Click on the Image of the Long-EZ to Download the Flight Model Package (folder) in the standard .ZIP format.

We’ve got a method for others to be involved, though: If you like, I need photos of Long-EZ Instrument Panels. And permission to use Yours in the plane if it’s just the one we need.

Just send a Reply to the CanardsX-Plane message that directed you here and ATTACH your photo.

(My email address will not be published here. I get quite enough SPAM, thank you.)

Instructional documentation will be forthcoming and published here later this month. Sorry for the delay ... but documentation is the least fun aspect.
