Thanks for the report Ed. Wish I can make long trips like that one  
day?  It was nice to see you again at S&F and all the rest of the  
rotary guys. I was surprised to see all the rotary planes and the  
constant activity around the rotary corner inside the engine tent.  
This year I can say the rotary is making visible progress compared to  
other engines.
I'm rewiring the injectors with shielded wire and hoping this will  
eliminate my high rpm headset noise problem? Today inside my hangar  
was 96F. Summer has arrived in S. FL.
