The Cozy Mk IV is a homebuilt plane, a 4-seat canard that cruises at 200mph!
It's made out of foam and fiberglass!

And we're back! After a year long break, I started glassing again -- the fwd face of the bottom fwd landing gear bulkhead. 1.4 more hours of epoxy & glass!
2 years and nothing more than some bulkheads! Constant reminder to stay building -- or it will take forever! #MyTwitterAnniversary
Unfortunately, I haven't gotten to work on the Cozy for the past 6 months -- taking care of the VariEze with a total panel replacement.
Aiming to get back on the Cozy by June -- tub or bust!
Aft landing gear bulkhead complete!
Pretty cool that you can really see the asymmetry in stackup (8x UNI on fwd vs 3x on aft) in the last pic
No work on the Cozy today, but I did make some fiberglass mounts for the VariEze nav lights (and my first real rivet work!)
A little quarantine makes the layup faster...
First side of instrument panel laid up and half trimmed. Of all the things in the workshop, I am scared of the router the most.
Instrument panel foam cut out, started first round of foam joining, and some landing gear bulkhead work
I spent 45min today cleaning up the shop and traced out the remaining piece of the instrument panel foam. Back at it!
Haven't worked on the Cozy for several months in order to do work on the VariEze:
- AI upgrade to a G5
- new ADS-B transponder
Aim to be back on the Cozy in a month or two.
