Hi Ed,
We
still have the 7… for the moment but it is on the block and the offers
are starting to come in. Jim was starting to get restless and you
know all about idle hands and the Devil so we decided to start a new challenge.
We picked up a Volmer (See
attached example) from a local friend who had lost interest in flying. It
needs a little work but that is the whole idea. We also thought it might
be a little under powered with an O-200 (Jim and I are not exactly feather
weights) and I just happen to have a spare 13B in flying condition from
the Lancair….. VIOLA… a new challenge!!!
This one will be Plugs-normal,
pan mounted with the rubbers between the pan mount and the pylon. We’re
still in the head-scratching stage but ideas are starting to solidify. I’ll
post pictures as progress continues.
If we still have the 7 in
April, we’ll have to hold court at S&F again.
Neil

Good to hear
you on the list. I figured you and Jim had sold your Rv-7 and were just
using the proceeds to sail around the warm waters of Florida. Good to
hear you have another rotary project going - a flying one I presume?
