Don’t let the jer.. er, gentleman, on the other list know you questioned the safety of that single support at the rear of the engine. I did and he summarily dismissed me from his list. Your plane is really looking good!
The guy is a rotary engine font of knowledge, I'm going to agree with John, but on a slightly different tack. My question is, "How do you know he is a font of knowledge?" Because, he sticks copyright on some half-thought out ideas that are drawn up nicely in AutoCAD? Because he is good at using a 3D CAD package? Because he has brought several well thought out, well tested ideas to the community that have increased safety or decreased cost? Because he argues tactfully and logically, developing a following through intelligent discussion?
I was on his list for about a week before I 'resigned'. He bounced my post, ostensibly because I didn't sign them. All my posts carried my signature (this one may not. I've not finished configuring my work account). Not only that, but every email list software I've ever seen will carry the email address of the sender. For some reason, "that guy" doesn't want his sheep to communicate. Funny, but the message he balked at had a list of data that clearly refuted some brain-dead claim he was making. It's easy to look knowledgeable when no one is allowed to disagree with you.
