Bob,
I know your designed the exhaust for authentic looks, but I have always wondered if there were side benefits.
You know, learning to fly is not one of the hardest things I have ever done, but it was difficult because, unless you have been involved in aviation it is completely different to anything else you may have ever done before.
Don't get me wrong, flying the plane is easy - take-off and landing a little harder. It's all the other stuff you have to know that got to me.

Bob,
A Licence would be handy( or are you pulling our leg), however the aircraft isn't quite finished yet, so you have a little time.
Yes! exciting times! The exhaust sounds very quiet, I'm wondering if it's the interesting and unusual exhaust design ( which I have always liked since seeing it) or that it just at idle - it's seems a very low idle as well!
