Ben,
I see why you haven’t run the engine, you are afraid you will get it dirty!
It looks really good! I need you to come do mine!

Bill,
I was really close. Guess I still am, problem is, I am still close. Just
not much closer. At the time I posted it, I was able to work more on it than
I can currently. I have been back at it, though I have been concentrating
on the canopy. (I figure if I get it started, production on the rest of the
aircraft will falter, as I will have it outside running all the time.
I have a couple of dated pics (not that there are any big changes since they
were taken) but they are from quite a while ago.
Best, Ben

Actually, I did think it was funny. I had been going back thru the posts looking for pictures
of your install,
(I didn’t find any, by the way, hint, hint), and I found
where you said you
were about ready to start your engine. So I thought
you probably had done
it already.
Personally I am working on the award for the longest time
to get in the air.
I am getting close! To the award, not the air!
I was really impressed by the change in rpm by changing to
Ed's prop. I am
now trying to do a change in my prop. I hope I get
similar results.

Sorry Bill, I just reread what I wrote a second ago, and it
may have come
off as rude. That was not my intent, intended a bit of
humor. Sorry if it
was taken wrong.
Reason I posted this was from the Alternative engine
fly in this weekend
in Paducah KY. Sam had a problem with low RPM, and it was
immediately
remedied with a different prop (but labeled the same
dimensions) After
running, and a side by side comparison, obvious that the
first was a
misbuild? mislabel? not sure, but not correct. I have a
prop from the same
builder, and was wondering about it. Thus, I checked and
reported.
