Hi Folks,

 

Update on Max.  He has decided that due to the nasty weather and conditions at and between Greenland and Europe to abandon this attempt to go further at this time.  So he’s hopping a big bird to his home in Austria and plans to come back later when weather conditions are favorable for both a thorough testing of his aircraft there in Greenland and also good for the rest of the trip to Austria.

 

Apparently from what I understood him to say, he normally does hangar his bird and therefore had not experience the results of leaving it out overnight in heavy rain. Also he indicated that he believes his fuel sump design needs to be looked at as he never finds water when he tests.   He still has confidence in the rotary engine – but has to figure out how to ensure no water remains in his fuel tanks.

 

I know you join me in cheering Max’s effort even if it is temporarily suspended and wishing him a fast and safe trip home.

 

Ed
