Bill,

Sounds like it would be a fascinating time to watch the "Mistral" rotary put to

the grinder to see what it can take..........Was it mentioned if both the 2 and 3 rotor

"Mistral" would be tested ?........The last I heard the 3 rotor was to be certified

first then the 2 rotor version.........Let all know if and when a "Rotorhead" group

visit can be arranged........Lets get some interest up.........I would be driving to

Ada (sadly) but I am just up the road in Okla City.........
