August 27, 2006  Michael Perry's First Flight!

I was very pleased to receive the following message.  CONGRATULATIONS  
MICHAEL!
Just wanted to drop you a note that N981MP, a Long Ez, made its first  
flight today from the Kissimmee Gateway Airport (ISM), Florida.
It has the EC2 and RD-1 installed on a 1988 13B.  The setup is pretty  
much as Tracy
did on his first RV.  Cut down carburetor on modified intake.

The biggest problem was putting a cooling system in the small cowl  
space of the Long EZ.
I used two AC condensers plus and aftermarket oil cooler for the  
cooling system.  Used an
aftermarket oil cooler.  First flight was one trip around the airport  
and back to landing.

The coolant temps never exceeded 180 to 190 and the Oil temp was only  
about 170 on the short
flight.
