Re: It Flies!
Thanks All - but credit really goes to Simon Wilson for the flying and doing a really great job of it.
It has been a bit of an experience just watching but really looking forward to flying soon.

Engine Hung, First Run Around the Corner
Finished all my firewall forward wiring and hoses, except throttle. Mounted the engine yesterday with airplane grade bolts getting ready for first engine run once the panel is done and connected.

Stein might not quite hire me but I am still pretty proud of my panel work so far. Plugs, a few avionics wires and dry rub-on labels missing but so close.

Congratulations!
Good to see it airborne again (I owned ‘SK briefly back in the ‘80s’)
Where was that - Shobdon?

Good Evening / Morning,
Very pleased to say that this weekend G-BKSK has graduated from ground to air, (as a Tri-Q200).
Added a few photos to my folder, but here is another.

Re: V Speeds
Those numbers are likely too low on the low end. Also depends on weight. Typically, the values are determined at gross weight, and using an O200 will raise your empty and likely raise gross as well
