. For you guys that have backwards planes, how hard would it be to modify a Vari-EZ, or Long-EZ into a push pull configuration, using two single rotor engines? Would this be relatively EZ (sorry), or a major effort? I would be willing to set it up as a single place, flown from the rear seat if that will help with the CG. Since I'm fiberglass challenged, I would be looking to buy a nearly complete project, and modify it from there. Think it will work out ?

There were two brothers from Brazil (I think) that had two rotaries in the back of a Rutan design, with over-running clutches, so either engine could be shut down without a problem. A long time ago. But it did work fine.
