Never mind that I am going to be paying $625/mo for a tiny t-hangar with no power and the locks don't work!!   I am still glad to have something near my house. – hand over the check… 

 

$625/mo!!!!!  Holy rip-off Batman :-)   Thank you for making the hurricanes more bearable.  I'll remember this the next time I hear someone whining about paying $150/mo for our nice, powered, lockable, big enough for a high and low wing plane hangers. 

 

It was the luckiest bad day I ever had.  My RD-1B is clearly broke, completely.   Last inspection was less than 10 hours ago, no issues.   

 

It's disturbing to here that your drive broke, but at least we know Tracy will give us the full scoop on what he finds.  I'm also glad it broke when it did.  It would have been a lot worse if this had happened at just about any other time.   

 

Enjoy your vacation anyway.

 

Cheers,

Rusty (wondering what the rpm would be if the drive let go at full throttle)
