Sent: Tuesday, March 24, 2009 5:42 PM To: Rotary motors in aircraft Subject: [FlyRotary] First Flight - Mustang II w/ 13B Turbo Rotary engine - N62BT On Wednesday, March 18, 2009, at approximately 10:00 a.m., my Mustang II took to the air for the first time. After almost 18 years of building (when time permitted), the first flight was exhilarating and deeply satisfying. The turbocharged Mazda rotary 13B engine ran well and all temperatures stayed in the green. It produced more power than I needed. Everything electric worked as planned, thanks to Mr. Bob Nuckolls and the AeroElectric Connection. The airplane is a joy to fly and made all the effort to build it worthwhile. I look forward to many adventures in the air after the initial 40 hour test period is flown off. See you in the skies!
