Good on ya Al, you being there is ONE of the
reasons I am coming, come hell or high water (bad weather always a
concern). I have not seen you since the Velocity Symposium in "otsix"
north of Big D and I have never seen your bird. I am guessin' I will have
"3rotar envy" <g>. I think my 2 rotor will push my SE along nicely,
especially if I succeed with the turbo.
I am currently waiting for Tracy to complete
updates and I am sure a few repairs to my electronics that I sent him last
week. Hopefully it will be back well before the roundup and I can share
some success stories....gee, wouldn't that be a
change??????<g>
I am debating if I want to remove my Mistral Intake
to lug along so others can see what Mistral is up to. I think it may help
others who are rolling their own. I am not sure yet if I am flying a rental or
with a friend in his Bonanza or driving(....in fairness to this friend, he is
building an RV7 with a soob/Engenfelder and says he would have purchased a
Mistral if it would have been available at the time...he is a big rotary fan
NOW<g>).
Also, this friend of mine, Blain, provides A/C
systems for factory aircraft such as Quest, Moony, Cessna 300/400's etc.
He is now providing a systems for experimental and has provided two to Velocity,
Inc for installation by the factory and delivered one to ME. For those who
may have questions about this, let me know. No, except for Blain providing
me my unit at a great price for R&D, I have no interest except an A/C that
does not pull any significant HP from the engine is cooooooool (yes, pun
intended).
I am getting all excited thinking about the
trip.
All the best,
Chris
