. . . . . . . . . Brandon Fryar’s Rans S-21 Outbound
My project is a Rans S-21 Outbound. I ordered the kit in March 2020 and received my airworthiness in April 2025. Currently I am in Phase I testing and hope to be done with that no later than end of this month.
- I plan to provide an overview of my project, including:
- Why I chose the Rans S-21.
- Why I selected the Titan 340 engine
- An overview of the items purchased, including avionics and their prices
- A summary of my build approach and timeline.
- A laundry list of lessons learned as this was my first build.
- Finally, I share my thoughts on the airplane now that I have approximately 30 hours in the air.
Arrive anytime from 5:00 and dinner is not required.
Where: BJ’s Restaurant and Brewhouse at Cottonwood Mall 10000 Coors Blvd, Albuquerque
Directions: — North or South bound on Coors Blvd to Cottonwood Mall, 10000 Coors Blvd NW. Take the Cottonwood Loop around to the south end of the parking lot. BJ’s is in a building of its own.
Monthly Chapter Gatherings offer time to network, with programs centered on exchanging experiences and ideas about aviation – airplanes, flying, and flying activities – rather than the chapter business which is addressed in bimonthly Board meetings.
Arrive anytime from 5:00 and dinner is not required.
We hope to see you there!
