Yes, we had Rusty's Rotary show up (sans Rusty), guess I'm
going to have to stop calling it Rusty's. Rich came to the flyin to learn
more about the rotary engine, so the RV-3 is in good hands. In
fact, I saw Finn eyeing it with a gleam in his eye.
Hi
Ed,
Thanks for
the kind comments, and great report. I actually thought I'd get an RV-7
friend of mine to fly me over yesterday, and figured it would be interesting to
walk around anonymously :-) He already had plans though, so maybe next
year.
You're right
about the plane being in good hands with Rich Nadig. There are very few
people that I would have been comfortable selling the plane to, but he's
certainly one of them. It should really be nice by the time he gets done
fine tuning some things. Might need to add a wheel on the front to protect
the prop though :-)
I spent the
week finishing up the single rotor engine installation. I'll post
some pics later in the week, when it's closer to being done. Total weight
is around 235 lbs. With any luck, I can make a leisurely
flight to next years roundup.
Cheers,
Rusty (maybe
canceling the Sonex order tomorrow)
