Re: Service ceiling
Ryan,
Do you have any of the builder logs, airframe and engine logs? I would think that there would be some info on the builder and plane's history you could glean from those? Also, the original

Hi All
Arrived back at ORE at about 5 PM eastern. It was a fantastic trip, and all of us meeting out at Oshkosh made it special. The flying was smooth, and the Revmaster ran perfectly. Used 1/2 quart

Re: Service ceiling
Im not sure who owned it previously. I bought it from Richard Kaczmarek in SC. I think he has had it in his shop for at least a short while. My understanding was that it had a medium-hard landing then

Re: Service ceiling
Previously. Block cracked at 299.6 hrs. Having lived in western, CO. My experience tells me you can not safely fly a Q2 in that environment.
