Well, there won't be any flying for Dan and Jerry anytime soon. We put the tail in a valley between the taxi way and the runway to get the tail low. Jerry was running it at about 3000 rpm, with less than a1/4 tank and it was running great. He started to pull back and the engine came to a very abrupt stop. It is frozen. There was no indication that anything was wrong. No smoke, no foul temp readings, no nothing. So now back to the shop with the engine. I don't like working on them. I can build them, but really don't trust myself with it and I don't know who will work on a VW for an airplane, that I would trust.
