<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I think you should send that plane to me, you
know, give somebody else a chance at that kind of luck. YOU
will never get that lucky again.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Yup excellent day here in N Ga,
but....</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I must be the luckiest guy alive. After 4
flights my engine became erratic. After landing I noticed a black streak
of soot trailing from the chin cowl. Upon removing the chin cowl, I
discovered that the entire mount would rotate completely in either
direction, all the way till it hit cowl.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Took it apart, discovered that 3 of 4 bolts
came loose that hold the mount to the firewall, and the last one was
holding by 3 threads. It did a lot of damage, but after an all afternoon
shift, it's ready to go again in the morning.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>So, ask me if I feel lucky =)</FONT></DIV>

plane!)</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Nice day here in Waxahachie Texas. 5-10mph
out of the south 58 degrees.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> 3 flights, improved trim and tried an
18x8W on the OS and seem to work well. Although it was a little
peaky on WOT and didnt want to come down on the idle well. Do I
need to lengthen the pipe some?</FONT></DIV>
