Thanks a heap Mark. It almost makes me feel proud. Got another hour in
this morning. It was smooth as could be and cold as ^##*. Frooze my butt
off. Did some stability test and practiced tight turns using my house as
the center of course. I also made a run up to a Buddies house and circled
him a bit. I did most flying at full throttle today. The run North was
about 40 miles and I was there so fast I over flew by a couple miles. I
think that my airspeed indicator is right on. Full throttle straight and
level is right about 170 mph. I did try a little more of increasing speed
by climbing a few hundred feet above my altitude and then lowering the
nose back down to my desired altitude and she would keep what ever speed
I gained on the dive. I was able to do 175 by doing that. I did another
stupid thing this morning that i knew I would do someday with my fuel
system. I have been keeping the header tank between 3/4 and full so my
testing is with in a certain range. This morning I turned on the transfer
pump at 3/4 tank and forgot about it until I throttled back in the
pattern. That's when I could hear it clattering. I figure I pumped 3 or 4
gals out through the vent. Ouch!
The rest of you Guys get out there and make some parts, the sum of which
can soon be an incredible airplane. YEEEEHAAAA!
