Re: N8WQ engine first start(s)
Congrats Jay!
I don’t know why in the hell you didn’t do the first 55% as fast as you have finished the last 55%. You’d have a 1000 hours on it by now! :>)))
See you in DEH!
Kevin

Many thanks to you Sam! A little piece of yours is on this fire-breather. That little carb heat muff that you sold me at “Sam’s garage sale” a number of years ago at FOD, was just perfect and

Don't tempt me, Phil. Calculations show that I could fly it ( slowly) with the doors off!. I have a buddy with a Stearman on our field and I told him I could fly my open cockpit biplane

Re: N8WQ engine first start(s)
It sounds good and seems to start great. Good job! I'll be interested what kind of speeds you get out of the 120(?) hp engine.
