snip.... Sorry for the lack of communication on the EM2 but between fighting web server problems and finishing the operating system for the EM2 I have had little time left over. As John Slade mentioned, "feature creep" has reared it's ugly head and added a lot of complexity to the program code but I'm really psyched about how well it is turning out. Newly added features are TAS (instead of IAS), Percent of engine power, horsepower based on BSFC & fuel flow, MPG display and bargraph display for some functions in addition to the usual digital presentation. The sample display layout shown on the website is already obsolete.
Finally had to take a break and fly the RVotter to New Symerna yesterday for a local RV lunch. First flight in a couple of weeks. Man that felt good!
PS, 9 years of inhaleing bugs has had no adverse affect on my engine. My test stand engine also inhaled a lot of epoxy from hastily assembled intake manifolds with no apparent damage.

Tracy,
You really have my admiration. After I retire I swear that I will never write another line of code as long as I live. Unfortunately, that is probably 10 years away. I'm looking forward to seeing the EM-2 this fall. I'll have to let the piggy bank recover from buying the RD-
2C though before buying the EM-2. Oh yeah, I also need to finish an airplane someday!
