Sharp eye, Bob.
I’m told that “Jason” must have used an
low density foam as the mold for the diffuser – which later showed a propensity
for crumbling under the conditions existing around it. Lesson learned.
Yes, I thought a good series of articles –
something you would never see in Sport Aviation – Kitplane has turned into a
true representative of the experimenter – while EAA has long lost its
Experimenter soul. Kitplane and of course, Pat and CONTACT. Although there
may be some hope for the EAA, I understand that Pat has taken over as editor of
its “Experimenter” on-line mag which can only be good.

Alternative engine Issue
It is an elegant installation. I didn't know that Jason
nickle plated the RD1? And I think I see a chip out of the left radiator
air intake diffuser.
Pat Panzera and Contact Magazine got a big shout out too.

Those of you who get Kitplane magazine will like this month
issue – all about alternative engines, Subaru, VW, Rotary, Corvette, Corvair,
you name it. A nice side bar from Tracy Crook on the rotary and
apparently Jason Hutchins has an rotary powered Rv-6A exactly like mine
including a “Plugs up” engine and the same paint job. Clearly Jason
has good taste {:>)
