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
