Hi, Ed....sorry, but I haven't flown = off the 40=20 hours yet. I have been doing a LOT of ground running, aborted = takeoffs,=20 etc. I have ran the engine until water temps hit 240 degrees 4 = times in=20 the last 4 days, and absolutely no signs of vapor lock. (prior to=20 modifications, I could induce vapor lock consistantly at 230 = degrees). I=20 finished the RAM air cowling scoop, and almost finished the aluminum=20 throttlebody extension scoop (just needs to be welded), and a few more = attempts=20 at fine tuning the injector open times (mixture), and it should be ready = for=20 another flight test. I already have more power than previous runs, = and the=20 engine is running great with the new injector, so it should fly even = faster than=20 before, and if the ram air scoop functions as I would hope, I should be = flying=20 off the hours rather rapidly. (On my first LongEZ, I flew the 40 hours = off in=20 the first week, putting 10 hours in on one Saturday). If the final = tweaking is successful, I plan on doing a LOT of flying. A 6000 = foot grass=20 strip would be no problem at all, as long as the grass is kept = short. How=20 wide is it? Maybe I could land on cross wise if the = grass is not=20 wet. (kidding). I hope you have a fun time at Tracy's and at the = fly-in. =20 Paul Conner
