COZY MARK IV
Overview
| The Cozy MK IV is a high-performance, four-seat canard aircraft which is comfortable, efficient, and economical to build. It has a range of about 1,000 miles and a top speed of 200 mph. When constructed according to plans and operated within the approval C.G. range, the canard configuration makes it highly resistant to stalls or loss of position control. The MK IV features full dual control and two-axis trim. The composite construction is very strong, resistant to corrosion and fatigue, and offers better protection to the occupants than other types of construction.
We purchased the Cozy designs (Cozy Mark IV) from Co-Z Development, and as of January 1, 2004 has the exclusive right to market these designs. These designs are protected with U.S. copyrights, and we have licensed no one else to copy all or any part of these designs to sell, loan, or give to others.

Cozy Plans in CAD (Brazil)
I have been a customer at Aircraft Spruce for some years now. I own the 998 license of a Cozy Mark IV. Since I got the plans back here in Brazil I started scanning and redrawing the plans and translating the building manual to Portuguese so people helping me could understand them.
The plans were redrawn in CAD, the templates were redrawn so they could be plotted and glued to the final surface and the whole aircraft was built virtually in 3D obeying to all original standards and modifications. Some of the original measurements were off by a few millimeters an were adjusted to 100% fitting. Today I have 100% digital building manual and plans.
