Step 1 should read, "Machine the aluminum side housings from billet aluminum per attached drawings."

The real issue is that I would hate to see all of Ri= chard's excellent work lost if anything were to happen to him. =A0It would turn into another story of some mystical rotary engine stored away in a garage somewhere for decades, never to run again. =A0The "hairy-chested hero" group needs to do more to further the rotary movement for those that will follow. =A0Otherwise, we will keep reinventing the same old wheel over and over again.

the airframe is my AVID Heavy Hauler, which = I flew for 10 years with a SOOB. Airframe mods are done, and the engine is on the test st= and for shake down runs.
