Questions

Hi Luke
I do not have immediate access to a digicam. I will see what I can find.
I honestly have zero problem with the speed cowling though I must admit I
did a lot of thinking and a few different things in building.
The only problem I have had with the airplane in 190 hours is with the
tailwheel. I have done nothing else but oil & filter changes & clean the
plugs & play with the Warp Drive pitch settings.
The aircraft cruises 112 kias easily. I was satisfied with that but I must
say I may try more reflex per Wayne's comment of 12 degrees. Mine is closer
to 8 degrees I think. The aircraft looses crispness in reflex. When I am
in the pattern & want better control, I always pull the flaps back to zero.
Cheers
Brian #328R

Brian ( #328 REB ),
If there is any possibility of you uploading pix of your cowl ( =
multiple views if feasible ) to the builder's site or to me personally, =
I would certainly appreciate it and find it most helpful!
I am just now in the process of trying to get the speed cowl to fit my =
application, which is a Subaru 2.2 with an EAA redrive. Unfortunately, =
I am going to have to rebuild the motor mount as Eggenfellner's design =
is not going to work at all, but that is part of the "experimental" part =
of this process, I suppose.
It appears that the entire cowl and cooling issues are some of the least =
clear, especially with any non- Lycoming application. Again any photos =
would be wonderfully appreciated; written descriptions second best but =
still appreciated.
Thanks, LUKE #503 REB skydoc@nidlink.com
