Actually, I did think it was funny.
I had been going back thru the posts looking for pictures of your install,
(I didn’t find any, by the way, hint, hint), and I found where you said you
were about ready to start your engine.  So I thought you probably had done
it already.
Personally I am working on the award for the longest time to get in the air.
I am getting close!  To the award, not the air!

I was really impressed by the change in rpm by changing to Ed's prop.  I am
now trying to do a change in my prop.  I hope I get similar results.

Sorry Bill, I just reread what I wrote a second ago, and it may have come
off as rude. That was not my intent, intended a bit of humor. Sorry if it
was taken wrong.

  Reason I posted this was from the Alternative engine fly in this weekend
in Paducah KY. Sam had a problem with low RPM, and it was immediately
remedied with a different prop (but labeled the same dimensions) After
running, and a side by side comparison, obvious that the first was a
misbuild? mislabel? not sure, but not correct. I have a prop from the same
builder, and was wondering about it. Thus, I checked and reported.
