Hatz Biplane Association

No more ROTAC! Rebuilt with Lycoming 0320 160 horse, with Sensenich 74/58".
Performs beautifully! First flight yesterday.

Hi Steve!
Beautiful! Congratulation for completing your Rotec Hatz Classic! Very nice and fresh- we wish you all the best for the first flight and are eager to see pictures of it in the air!
By the way, we now have 140 h flight time with our Rotec Vintage Hatz!
Kind regards
Hans & Sam, H.C.#78, Switzerland

P..S. At first, I thought to see a D instead the C on the registration and worried about not having known this build in Germany, when I noticed that it is a C for Canada!

Doug, I'm out of home for the next few days. I'm going to post my performance data in separate thread, for easier navigation.
Regards,
Wojtek

Wojtek, what are you seeing for cruise speed with that prop?

Hi Steve, my prop is from Culer Prop too, but it is 84x55". So it's definitely cruise prop. I'm curious about your performance in the near future. My Hatz is performing very well so far, just waiting for the CAA certificate. I wonder if you have more pictures of your beautiful Hatz published somewere?

Hello Ed
I'm awaiting papers. Have just applied for the certificate of registration which takes 90 days maximum in Canada, then apply for the final inspection. I will probably be legal to fly by Christmas, way to cold for an open
cockpit but will probably do some taxi testing and if I lift off I'll fly a pattern or two. This won't be enough to get accurate figures.
Thanks Steve

Wow! It sure is a beauty. What is your cruise with that prop?

Thank you Wojtek
I'm using a culver prop"vally engineering". Rolla missouri. 84x53". I prefer climb performance over cruise.
How are you making out with your very nice Hatz.

Great! What prop did you use?
