Ian Beadle lives in Perth. Western Australia, plane based at Bindoon,
about 100km north of Perth, the plane is his second Rotary RV after a
bad off field experience in his first. this plane was my inspiration
to go rotary. I have not heard from him in the last couple of years so
I assume he is too busy flying. can be contacted iwbeadle at bigpond

I found where Ian was on this list back in ’05.  He unsubscribed then.  I
tried to send an msg to him at that old address.  It just bounced back so if
anyone can inquire of him I would like to know what he did to muffle his
RV7.

 If you want to have a quiet rotary powered plane, you need to get someone
in Australia to talk with Ian Beadle to see what he has done with his RV6
powered with a Renesis.

This plane is quiet!  I don’t know where Bindoon is located….

Kelly,



You just need to fly at Mach 1 so you stay ahead of the sound.  ;-)



Can anyone report on the effectiveness of the tangential muffler in actual
real world situations?  (As I recall Al G. is running a tangential muffler
on his Velocity.)  I ask because I'm in the process of building one for my
Lancair with the hopes that it will work better than the DNA muffler that
I'm currently running.  I think it will work better at reducing the noise
level in the cabin, but at what cost to power?  Hopefully, this will save me
the cost of a new Zulu ANR headset.  Comments appreciated.

Hey gang!



I came across a rare find this weekend.

Any serious rotorhead will certainly appreciate this.



Bluelines from 1973 of the General Motors Wankel Rotary engine.



I just put them up on eBay
